ACDA ADVOCACY RESOLUTION Whereas the human spirit is elevated to a broader understanding of itself through study and performance in the aesthetic arts; and

Whereas serious cutbacks in funding and support have steadily eroded state institutions and their programs throughout our

country;

Be it resolved that all citizens of the United States actively voice their affirma-

tion and collective support for necessary funding at the local, state, and nation-al levels of education and government to ensure the survival of arts programs

for this and future generations.
