ARTS
WALK • On February 28th, 2009, Theatre
West Executive. Director John Gallogly joined State
Senator Carol Liuin at an "Arts Walk' through the NoHo
Arts District. As a result of the walk, Senator Liu has agreed
to be a co-sponsor of AB 700, Assemblyman Paul Krekorian's
'Creative Industries and Community Impact Act', and asked
to be appointed to the Joint Committee on the Arts. Senator
Liu was joined by members of the Chamber of Commerce, local
developers, restauranteurs and business owners as well as
members of City Council staff and the CRA. There
is an increasing recognition by the business community that
having the arts in the community is driving economic development
and job creation. AB 700 will restore funding to the California
Arts Council, which will allow the council to again give grants
to individual artists and small non profits like Theatre West.
