Action Center

Welcome to the Cultural Alliance's Online Action Center!
This is your "one-stop shop" for the latest on issues affecting the cultural sector in City Hall, Harrisburg, and Capitol Hill - and ways you can take action.
2009 has been a busy year for arts advocates in Greater Philadelphia, as the cultural sector was dealt many blows in a very drawn-out state budget process in Pennsylvania, including proposals to zero out the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, and to levy the state sales tax on admissions to museums, theaters, concerts, zoos, and historical sites, among others.
In response, arts administrators, artists, actors, musicians, service industry professionals, families, and students ralllied together in record numbers to influence the conversation on arts and culture in Harrisburg. Keeping this momentum up is critical.
Questions? Have some ideas or feedback? Want to get involved in future hands-on advocacy efforts? Contact Sara Cederberg, Grassroots Advocacy Coordinator, at 215-399-3522 or sarac@philaculture.org.
