Sojourner, Georgia Governor Nathan Deal |
The arts community partnered with Georgia's tourism industry for Tourism Day at the Capitol on Tuesday, January 29th. In these tough times, focusing on the positive economic impact of the arts as a vehicle which attracts tourism dollars to Georgia is a great way to convince skeptics of the need to invest in the arts now!
For
the event, the Georgia Arts Network partnered with: Georgia
Association of Convention & Visitors Bureau, Georgia Chamber of
Commerce, Georgia Restaurant Association, and the Georgia Hotel &
Lodging Association.
This year it is critical to speak with legislators about the need to increase funding for the Georgia Council for the Arts in order to secure that Georgia receives the full matching funds from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA).
