UPDATE!
On September 1, 2009, the B.C. government proposed cuts to the arts, from $19.5 million in 2008-2009 to $3.6 million in 2009-2010, which is an 82 percent cut in funding. Overall funding for the arts and culture through all sources, including gaming, was cut from $47.8 million in 2008-2009 to $23 million in 2009-2010. By 2011-12, arts funding will be cut to $3.67 million — a total cut of between 85 and 92 percent. These cuts are dramatic, and given that the cultural sector has had no time to adjust, the cuts have created instability and uncertainty in the sector.
Not happy with the idea of a 92 percent cut to your art??
Let B.C.'s Minister of Tourism, Culture & the Arts
Kevin Kreuger know.
