For the second year in a row I’m hitting Capitol Hill with The Creative Coalition to lobby for funding for the Arts. Led by The Creative Coalition co-presidents Tim Daly and Dana Delany along with actors Adrian Grenier, Omar Epps, Marlon Wayans, Cheryl Hines, Steven Weber, Gloria Ruben, Wendie Malick, CCH Pounder, Caroline of Caroline’s Comedy Club, TCC CEO Robin Bronk, Emmy Award-winning producer Tom Fontana…and of course, no trip to the DC would be complete without The West Wing’s Richard Schiff…

BIG THANKS to Alaska Senator Mark Begich for the Senatorial Shout Out to the ART & SOUL project a lunch for the STEM project. We gave Senator Begich a copy of the original ‘Art & Soul’ book when we with him last year and he says that it’s one of the only books he keeps in his DC office. Wow! Thank you Senator!
