INVEST IN THE ARTS
The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) reaches every congressional district,
building creative infrastructure in local communities and expanding access to the arts. Representing just 0.003 percent of the federal budget, the NEA also provides a high return on investment. Historically, every NEA grant dollar spent leverages another $9 in private and other public matching funds. Music and the arts are woven throughout our country’s history. As America approaches its 250th birthday, adequate funding is essential as the NEA is called upon to support this milestone celebration.
