Arts Policies of U.S. Presidential Candidates

The arts policies of the presumptive candidates of the Democratic and Republican parties are important to consider. ArtsVote 2008 (a program of the Americans for the Arts Action Fund) inivted each presidential candidate to detail their positions on art and art education and provided them with a Pro-Arts Policy Brief that candidates could adopt or use as a base for development of their own.
