- Arts & Cultural Funding
Senator Serrano along with NYS Assembly Member Danny O'Donnell hosted an Arts Rally in Albany calling for increased funding in this year's budget. Serrano was joined by State legislators and arts and culture groups from across the state in an effort to raise their voices to call for a robust investment in the Arts and to ensure that arts are present in the education of every child in New York.
“The arts and culture are vitally important to all New Yorkers. They serve as a major economic engine, fueling jobs and revenue for the state. The arts bring us together, providing countless educational opportunities, while serving as a vehicle for discussions on inclusion and social justice. Now more than ever it is essential that we continue to support investments in the arts throughout the state.”
