NEA Fine Arts Caucus Meetings & June 30 Agenda

Good morning friends in attendance and those watching from home.  We are pleased to remind you that the NEA Fine Arts Caucus will be having a "banner year" at the 2012 RA.  We have new business, will be unveiling our  banners (available for caucus members through the year), selling EVERYONE DESERVES ARTS EDUCATION, meeting with representatives of Arts for Americda and the Arts Action Fund, holding elections and much, much more. 

Please join us at ALL of our meetings that are open to the public and join us on FACEBOOK.  Most of our notices and posting for this year's RA will happen on our FACEBOOK account.  We will be using texts minimally.
