URGENT: Help Save PCA Funding for the Arts

Pennsylvania Council of the Arts grants is being threatened with a 70 percent cut in funding for its grants programs.  Eight Marketing has participated in the funding process with PCA and can personally attest to the broad range of organizations it impacts and whose funding makes programs possible for main stream, multicultural and underserved audiences throughout the Commonwealth.

You can help. If you have not already done so, please consider contacting your representatives to share your concerns. If you have been funded by PCA, please consider having your audiences participate as well.

On June 8, the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance is in Harrisburg to participate in a press conference to urge for reconsideration of these cuts. Follow GPCA on Facebook  or track the conversation on Twitter at hashtag #SavePCA.
