Demand Congress Restore Art Funding!

Recent signers:
Shotou Todoroki and 19 others have signed recently.

The Issue

The Trump administration has just canceled millions in federal grants for arts, culture, and humanities, gutting museums, archives, libraries, and education programs nationwide.

These grants weren’t handouts, they preserved history, supported artists, and educated communities. The NEH approved these funds, yet the administration is clawing them back under the guise of “fiscal priorities.”

The result?

Programs will shut down, jobs will vanish, and cultural institutions will close.

This isn’t just about money. It’s about erasing our heritage, stifling creativity, and dismantling education.

Art and culture aren’t partisan. They shape who we are. Every American benefits from these investments.

We can’t let them disappear.

We demand Congress intervene to stop this attack. The funds were awarded. The commitments were made. The American people deserve better! Sign now to save the arts!
