Bailout for the Arts?? sign me up!

Dear Friends,

Split This Rock http://www.splitthisrock.org/ & The Institute for Policy Studies http://www.ips-dc.org/ are advocating for the arts to be included in the $600 billion stimulus package - we have put together a petition calling for an arts stimulus plan; similar to the WPA program from the '30's. The position paper will hit the desk of the transition team soon, so we need all the signatures we can as soon as possible!

Please take a moment to join our "event,' sign our petition, invite friends to join. This could mean jobs!! fellowships!! Act now.
