Margaret Atwood, William Gibson, Douglas Coupland and many other eminent British Columbians and Canadians Speak Out Against BC Arts Cuts
The Pacific Association of Artist-Run Centres (PAARC) and Stop the BC Arts Cuts jointly announce the launch of a new website protesting the BC Liberal government’s devastating cuts to arts and culture funding.
The website can be found at http://www.StopBCArtsCuts.ca.
Stop BC Arts Cuts is loose affiliation of concerned arts organizations and individuals working to bring attention to the damage that 90% funding cuts over two years will do to BC’s arts and culture sector and the province’s cultural life. It asked numerous high-profile individuals to write about their feelings about the attack on the arts. Many more names will be added over the coming weeks.
Information about the issue can be found on the homepage above.
Media can contact stopbcartscuts@paarc.ca.
