Description
In this nation, arts funding and programs have faced deep cuts in recent years. The NEA has not rebounded from its budgetary reduction of the 1980's while schools and community arts programs struggle to survive.
This presentation seeks to provide a rationale for the resurgence of arts funding in the United States and the renaissance of an arts driven society even as the country faces an economic downturn.
