State of the Arts and Culture Sector

As we move into a new year, the Illinois arts and culture sector faces significant challenges and opportunities. Join us for a virtual State of the Arts and Culture Sector event, hosted by Arts Alliance Illinois, to discuss the most pressing issues impacting the arts community today.

We will talk about:

• Potential impacts of a second Trump term on arts funding and policies.
• Current state of Illinois’ budget and the implications for the Illinois Arts Council.
• Ending of COVID-19 relief funding and what it means for arts organizations.
• Updates on recent legislative wins and opportunities in the 2025 legislative session. 

This is an important opportunity for arts leaders, organizations, and advocates to come together, share insights, and prepare for the upcoming state legislative session. There will be a Q&A with Arts Alliance leadership, including Executive Director Claire Rice. 

RSVP today!
