Connecticut Arts Alliance (CAA) is our state’s ONLY statewide arts advocacy organization. Led by a diverse group of artists, arts educators, and arts professionals, our unified voice promotes the importance of arts and culture in building healthy, vibrant, and connected communities.  Established in 2005, CAA is now expanding its reach in an effort to include even more arts and cultural organizations across the state by creating a Membership Program.

As an arts advocacy organization, our goals are to:

  • Educate our state and community leaders and the public about the impact of the arts
  • Advocate to inspire and empower people across Connecticut to raise their voices in support of the arts
  • Organize to explore important issues that affect the arts and to share expertise and experiences with others

CAA recently made tremendous strides in getting the arts on the political agenda through a nonpartisan public education campaign called Create the Vote CT.  That effort led Governor Ned Lamont and Lieutenant Governor Susan Bysiewicz to include arts and culture, along with tourism, as one of fifteen transition policy committees formed to make recommendations to their new administration. We are building on that momentum and plan to continue to raise awareness of the impact that arts and culture have on education, the economy, and our quality of life in Connecticut.
