It's Up To You... It's Up To All Of Us.

If we want more arts and arts education in our communities, we must communicate to our public officials on a regular basis. If we don't, our requests will continue to go unheard and arts for our kids and our communities will continue to go by the wayside.

Because Arts for LA can't be at every city council or school board meeting, we create opportunities for local coalitions to effectively mobilize and advocate for more arts and arts education.

Below is a list of campaigns and initiatives at the local, state and federal level. We encourage you to participate in these local campaigns by writing the letters, and encouraging your friends, colleagues and family members to do the same. The more we speak in a unified voice, the more our public officials will pay attention to our needs.

It's important that our message remains professional and on point. Below are a few best practices for arts administrators, teachers, parents, students... well, virtually anyone who wants more arts and their school and community.
