Breaking News! Governor Gavin Newsom California proposes a 58% cut to arts program funding in 24-25 May revise of California budget.

TAKE ACTION TODAY!

Arts Advocates Launch Campaign Urging Governor Newsom to REVERSE Arts Funding Cuts Proposed in May Revise.
While Newsom shared that “core services are protected” his proposal includes decimating 100% of the funding for implementing SB 1116, the Performing Arts Equitable Payroll Fund ($12.5 million) and 38% ($10 million) of the state arts agency or California Arts Council’s $26 million in grants to arts nonprofits.

For too long, California’s artists, tradition bearers, cultural organizations and creative businesses have carried the weight of the state’s preeminence as a cultural producer and creative economy on their shoulders alone, without adequate sustained public investment.

Access to arts, culture and creative expression is a core service that delivers a multitude of public impacts. These opportunities weave the social fabric of our communities, empower
individuals, engage youth, vivify places, bond groups, bridge differences and transform lives, building community health while driving over 8% of the state’s economy, supporting
847,688 jobs and generating 7.3% of state tax revenue.

California Arts Advocates with coalition partners Actors' Equity Association and Theatre Producers of Southern California
will work alongside creative industry leaders and statewide advocates to urge the Governor and Legislature to recognize the drastic nature of these cuts and the destabilizing threats they pose to the livelihoods of the creative workforce and to the promise of core California values.

I've been the onsite Project Assistant for PUSH Dance Company's Hip Hop Artists Residency & Training (HART), a 4-month long residency program that provides training and performance opportunities to Black SF/Bay Area artists with aspirations to build a career in Hip Hop and performing arts addressing racial and social justice.

Their final showcase is a culmination of the artist’s original works as soloists and collaborators. This year’s cohort is majority women and its truly exciting to celebrate Black women in hip hop who are actively making history in their own rite!
