Arts funding important to health, well-being
The Mississippi Arts Commission may not be considered by some to be a part of the core function of government, but the arts are at the heart of the core function of being human.

If we as parents accept continued reduction of arts learning opportunities, we run the risk of producing workers with diminished ability to think analytically, communicate effectively or work collaboratively in this dynamic global economy.
