A Secretary of the Arts Under Obama?


Quincy Jones has started a petition to ask President-Elect Obama to
appoint a Secretary of the Arts. While many other countries have had Ministers
of Art or Culture for centuries, The United States has never created such a
position. We in the arts need this and the country needs the arts--now
more than ever. Please take a moment to sign this important petition and
then pass it on to your friends and colleagues.

I have received this message from two other sources today. I am pleased to see it go around the internet. I have signed and passed it on for others to sign. I hope that our efforts are successful.
