It’s no secret the global economy is tanking.  Nobody’s that surprised, right? So when the Arts flourish in strong economic times, it’s no surprise that arts funding gets cut when things are tight. I’m not saying this is right or wrong, that’s just the way it is.
I just attended a panel discussion – MAKE ART [...]
