“Forgotten Hollywood”- Arts & Humanities get a financial boost!
Manny P here…
President Barack Obama (with tomorrow's talent)
According to Victoria Hutter in the media office at the NEA, The Obama Administration has changed this alarming trend by signing the Interior Appropriations Bill into law that would infuse much needed cash towards the National Endowment for the Arts & Humanites. In fact, the bill will increase federal arts to its highest monetary level in 16 years! This piece of legislation passed the House and Senate on Thursday, and it will help keep NEA outlets from closing their doors, while others will receive much needed renovation.
The Smithsonian Institute
For example, the executive directive will have a positive impact on the Internet because of a digitization program (beginning within the Smithsonian Institute), which will make museum artifacts available for view for those wanting to learn by observation. This includes youngsters throughout the world.
I say, ” BRAVO ” to our elected officials for finally recognizing the importance of this little talked-about issue.
Once it comes to pass, the creative community shall literally live to see another day…
Until next time> “never forget“
