Speak up for arts funding! ✍️📣💵

See you tonight at 6pm, Healthy Planet Arena! It is extremely important that members of the public speak to the value of funding the arts.

In-person discussions with Counsellors and City staff are an excellent way to make your voice heard during this critical moment.

We are proud to join the non-partisan Canadian Arts Coalition, to fight for the arts at a time when Canada needs it most. We believe it is important for arts’ sake as well as for the impact it can have on the well-being of Canadians, for its importance as an economic generator for our communities.
