Arts Advocacy Day is your opportunity to receive crucial advocacy training from experts in the field and then put that training into practice. Hosted by Americans for the Arts and cosponsored by 85+ national arts organizations, National Arts Advocacy Day is the largest gathering of its kind, bringing together a broad cross section of America’s cultural and civic organizations. Grassroots advocates from across the country come to Washington DC to meet with their members of Congress in support of issues like arts education policy, the charitable tax deduction, and funding for the National Endowment for the Arts.

On Monday, join hundreds of your colleagues from across the country for interactive advocacy training and peer-to-peer learning and networking. That night, get inspired by our Nancy Hanks Lecture on Arts & Public Policy at the Kennedy Center.

Then, on Tuesday, after the Congressional Arts Kick Off, you’ll meet with your congressional representatives to share your story about the impact and transformative power that the arts have in your community.

Why should I register?
