Fingers Crossed

This gathering of sixty artist-activists from around the country recently at the White House, perhaps timed to coincide with the nomination of Rocco Landesman as Chair of the NEA, is an excellent sign that the Obama Administration understands the role the arts could play in our nation. I am pleased to see Dudley Cocke (Roadside Theatre / Appalshop) and Linda Frye Burnham (Community Arts Network http://www.communityarts.net) among the gathering. Read about it at Alternet.org in the article "Forget Tech for a Sec, How Will the Arts Help the Obama Administration?"
