Getting To The Art of The Matter (PSA - art cuts)
Written by Anita Adams Tuesday, 22 December 2009 08:28
First Weekend Club is taking a stand for the inclusion of arts in our community.
In the wake of an upcoming drastic and serious 92% cut of funding to the arts in BC, we, and thousands of our members ask you to take a look at this PSA short film "Artless", made by two First Weekend Club members and award-winning filmmakers, Kryshan Randel and Cara Yeates. It is a poignant and visually beautiful short film (30 seconds), and is part of a campaign to help you reach out to the government.
Says Ms. Yeates "As artists we are fighting these cuts the best way we know how, through our art.”
Please, watch the short films and take action:
