We are delighted to report that full funding for ASCA has been restored.

This restoration of funds is a direct result of the unrelenting efforts of arts advocates across the state who simply would not accept an Alaska that did not invest in arts and culture. The citizens of Alaska made it clear that support for the arts is non-negotiable and an integral part of the state\u2019s cultural heritage. WESTAF looks forward to supporting the agency and its staff in its rebuilding efforts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #333333;\"><b>Inilunsad ng ZAPP ang Mobile-Responsive Artist Side<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #333333;\">Inilunsad ng ZAPPlication ang isang muling idisenyo, ganap na tumutugon na site ng artist noong Setyembre 12.

Sa user base na bumibiyahe sa mga art fair at festival sa buong bansa, ang pagkakaroon ng site na kasing-mobile ng mga ito ay mahalaga.
