The momentum is building for voters who care about arts and culture--those who understand that when given access, the arts change peoples' lives. Many of you helped demonstrate that power by attending the standing-room only mayoral forum on March 7. As a result of your engagement and the efforts of Citizen Artist Baltimore (CAB), ALL of the leading candidates have responded to the community generated arts questionnaire. You can check out their responses on the CAB website. While you are there, take the pledge and add your name to the growing list of arts voters. The greater our numbers, the greater our influence.
What’s next?
The deadline to register to vote is April 5, at 9:00 pm. Let’s make sure that, as many arts voters as possible are eligible to participate in the upcoming primary.
