Rally for the Arts

MAP
The BC Liberal government has proposed cuts to funding for the arts, in the order of 50% this coming year, 90% in 2011, and 91%-94% the following year.
We believe that arts and culture are an essential part of our society and are therefore rallying to show our opposition to these cuts.
So... artists of all shapes and sizes, please join us on the steps of the BC legislature! Bring an instrument, a work of art, or a sign!
Let your voice be heard. It's only an hour out of your day to show your concern for the rest of your (or your friends) careers.
And invite everybody you know!!! We need at least 200 people for this to be noticeable.
