Talofa fo'i le WESTAF community:<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you everyone for such an action-packed week \u2014 really productive and inspiring all-team, committee and trustee meetings. Thanks for the blocks of intense time, focus and feedback. It was a lot! There was so much information to cover in the agenda that in fine-tuning how we spend our time together in the future, we want to make sure that individual topics have more room for thoughtful discourse and the sharing of ideas. Special thanks to our team and trustee committee presenters for the preparation and delivery. This coming week, we\u2019ll be saying farewell to <\/span>Seyan Lucero<\/b> and <\/span>Madalena Salazar<\/b>. Both have done so much for WESTAF and we\u2019re really going to miss them, but we\u2019re also very excited for their next professional chapters! Happy trails, colleagues!

WESTAF recently circulated policy recommendations to members of the Western Arts Advocacy Network (WAAN) and other significant regional stakeholders. An initial version of this statement (featured in your Board Book) was shared, in response to a request, with members of the Biden-Harris transition team, and the new version expands to adopt further recommendations and reflect actions the new Administration has already begun to take. If an organization you are affiliated with would like to add your endorsement, please complete this quick <\/span>Google form<\/span><\/a>.

WESTAF FA'AUAOINA GALUEGA I LE FA'ASA'OGA O TULAGA FA'AIGA FA'ATUNUU I COLORADO (DH)<\/b><\/h2>\n

WESTAF has continued to support a coalition of arts advocates in Colorado to define a new direction and an aligned vision for arts advocacy across the state. The Colorado Cultural Partners group conducted an Advocacy Alignment Survey across the state and was led in a planning session by <\/span>Taloma Partners<\/span><\/a>, a women-owned business\/nonprofit consulting firm. WESTAF is working closely with Colorado Creative Industries; has developed a new relationship with Colorado Business Committee for the Arts through our advocacy funding program; and has taken on in-house management of the lobbyist contract in Colorado with <\/span>Brandeberry McKenna Public Affairs<\/span><\/a> (BBMK), a women-owned lobbying firm who has worked on behalf of the arts in the state for over a decade. The four areas of the developing legislative strategy are securing relief for the field, restoring Creative Districts funding through Colorado Creative Industries, and developing an equity-centered opportunity (potentially for artists). The core objective is protecting the funding for CCI and possibly bringing down additional relief dollars for the field. Legislative work will focus on Colorado Joint Budget Committee members and Colorado General Assembly leadership. The Colorado Arts Caucus will be managed by the Colorado Cultural Partners group with support from BBMK.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
