Our leaders are not recognizing how important arts are to the community. A strong arts culture keeps Michigan's culture vibrant, diverse, and exciting. It helps reverse the brain drain currently impacting Michigan, and keeps us together. Grand Rapid's recent art competition drew in thousands of participants, national attention, and helped revitalize the community. This is just one of many examples of why it's so important to promote the arts.
