Artadia has joined 700+ arts groups and field leaders from across the country to endorse a new policy proposal to Put Creative Workers to Work as part of a national recovery strategy. There is no recovery without creativity-and we, like all 5.1 million creative workers and hundreds of thousands of cultural organizations across the U.S., stand ready to answer the call! We're proud to have endorsed this policy proposal, which will be shared with the presidential campaigns and Congress, and hope you'll take a look and consider endorsing it, too.
