Influence the 2020 Provincial Budget: Send an Email to Your MLA

The 2020 BC budget needs to work for everyone – including artists and cultural workers. Over the past two years, the provincial government has grown the budget of the BC Arts Council from $24 million to $34 million. We gratefully acknowledge this investment, and ask that the government continue to follow through on its 2017 promise: to double the budget of the BC Arts Council.

The BC Alliance has created an email campaign to help you influence the 2020 provincial budget. Simply click here, enter your address, and you can send a customizable email you can send your MLA along with other key figures in the BC government. This campaign will be live until early December, so we encourage you to take action quickly and maximize your impact by sharing the campaign on social media.

Let Premier John Horgan, Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture Lisa Beare, Minister of Finance and Deputy Premier Carole James, and your MLA know why arts, culture and heritage matter to you.
