Quincy Jones has started a petition...(originally posted 1/19/09)

We in the arts need this and the country needs the arts--now more than ever...

Dear Friends,

Quincy Jones has started a petition to ask President Obama to appoint a Secretary of the Arts. While many other countries have had Ministers ofArt 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. On the link below, please take a moment to sign this important petition and then pass it on to your friends and colleagues. Peace.
