It is with great joy and gratitude that I declare victory after the announcement that funding will remain in place through 2018. Let's continue to remain vigilant in the coming years! I'd love to connect with you on my Facebook page https://goo.gl/W4o2YO and through twitter http://www.twitter.com/JonEstabrooks. While this is a welcomed victory, let us remain vigilant and be sure that our voices continue to be heard. This all began with one petition and over 50,000 of you joined my not only to sign, but with your pocket books to help us achieve something wonderful with our anthem for the arts. To each of you, my eternal gratitude. If you'd like to stay connect, As always, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Sincerely, Jonathan
