For twenty-five years, Arts Wisconsin has advocated for the arts’ place in our state and nation. This year, representatives from the organization traveled to Washington, D.C. to join with over 700 advocates from across the United States. Executive Director Anne Katz, Board Director George Tzougros, and Milwaukee native and NYU grad student Kathryn Walker spoke to lawmakers about the importance of the 8 million Americans that work in arts and culture and contribute $730 billion to the national GDP.
