UPDATE: March 31, 2022: Arts Advocates and LAC Artists Speak to Arlington County Board

This week, LAC artists Zack Norrbom, Victoria Truhn, and J.S. Herbert spoke to County Board about the FY23 budget, proposed fee increases, and LAC’s value to the community and local artists. They were supported by testimony provided by local arts advocates Kathy Freshly and David Carlson. Final decisions and markup are scheduled for April 21. The FY23 budget will be finalized on April 23.

We need your help now, more than ever, to convince County decision-makers to support our goal of preserving the LAC program, increasing membership, and enriching the community at large.

Please show your support of the LAC artists and studios by writing, emailing, or calling County decision-makers. Contact information and sample letters are at saveLAC.org. Please tell your friends and neighbors and ask them to sign our petition.

Thank you for your help!
