Yesterday the Providence Journal ran an article about the Senate Review of the state's current 1% for Art policy.
You can read the full article here. The likelihood of this review is a revision to the policy but hopefully in the favor of making a shift towards directing some portion of those funds to more community-based temporary public art projects. At the recent hearing, senators frequently mentioned RISD, along with other higher-ed institutions, as incubators for up-and-coming public artists.
For people who are interested in learning more or voicing their opinion on the issue, there will be a session for public testimony on Tuesday April 28th at the State House.
Contact RISCA at (401) 222-3882 for more details on the hearing.
