The candidates elected on November 8th are now the legislators making decisions about budget priorities in 2023 and they’ll be the ones who will support policies that benefit the arts community. This election season we helped voters connect with candidates by hosting regional candidate forums and asking candidates to share their thoughts on arts policy issues by answering our #CreatetheVoteCT arts survey.
