Advocacy Homepage announced by American Arts Alliance
 
In response to the imminent threat to the survival of the National
Endowment for the Arts (NEA), the American Arts Alliance is pleased 
to announce the creation of an "advocacy homepage" and gopher site
accessible to the millions Internet users.  The homepage provides 
advocacy information and tools for arts supporters to communicate the 
need for continued federal support of the arts to their senators and 
representatives.
 
This information, which includes our 900 number, a sample letter, NEA
facts and general information, greatly advances the the arts community's
continuing efforts to generate support for the NEA through local 
grassroots contacts with elected officials.  In addition to educating 
the public and expanding the base of potentially interested parties, 
computer users can easily transform the data into a uniquely personal 
letter to send to their leaders in Washington.  
 
The American Arts Alliance is available on the Arts Wire WWW site. 
The URL:  http://www.tmn.com/0h/Artswire/www/aaa/aaahome.html
 
This information is also available on the Arts Wire gopher:
