PASO activities in
support of arts funding—In recent weeks artists from across Ontario have been meeting with MPPs regarding sustaining funding for the Ontario Arts Council. Participants recommended by PASO members from within their own memberships resident in specific constituencies have now met with 32 MPPs - 16 Liberal
(including 4 Cabinet Ministers), 10 Progressive Conservative and 6 New Democrat.
At the meetings, there were 10 advocates
from dance communities across Ontario.
We will endeavour to further develop
these relationships and advocate for the broader
arts community for increases in funding for the
sector in the leadup to an anticipated provincial
election.
