DC's Cultural Plan is finally being released: April 4! Come on out to the release event! https://t.co/iuS6JmvBPu #culturalplan

@UnionMarketDC is great! But food is not the only culture a neighborhood needs. In this long list of projects in the works for @NoMaBID the only cultural move mentioned is losing the Angelika cinema. That is a recipe for a pricey cultural wasteland. https://t.co/q8VDprqB2q

"A thriving arts scene is a vital component of any successful mixed-use community,” according to JBGSmith's Andrew VanHorn. Correct! Now @jbgsmith be bold and step up to help Synetic secure a long-term home. 3 years will fly by fast! https://t.co/6P9GVXz1Dm

[JBG SMITH @jbgsmith]

We are proud @SyneticTheater made National Landing its home nearly a decade ago and will continue to enrich and inspire our growing community for years to come!

The power of arts education doesn't get much clearer than in this article from NYC schools @DOEChancellor Richard Carranza. @DCCollaborative https://t.co/tfmhi4tFGw #artsgivelife #artschangelives

We said it was a busy day, right? What this means for the Cultural Plan timeline is unclear - that plan was originally promised by late summer 2018, then that was revised to fall 2018. https://t.co/IlIMCMfOHE

A busy day in arts and arts-adjacent news! https://t.co/JIGHxuwzZM

Mon. April 9! Come join ArtsActionDC and Councilmember David Grosso and jump into strategy for securing dedicated funding for the DC Commission - DC's state & city arts granting organization @TheDCArts @cmdgrosso https://t.co/crHkbYRhAA #artsadvocacy #ofcoursethearts

[ArtsAction DC @ArtsActionDC]

Huzzah - thank you Maryland! Permanent funding for Metro is good for everyone in the DC metro region. Dedicated funding for the arts would be a great next step - an investment in DC residents doing unique work that can only be done in DC. #artsadvocacy #ofcoursethearts https://t.co/RDO4TQKGFF

[Post Local @postlocal]

Metro gets third and final ‘yes’ as Maryland commits to its full share of dedicated funding https://t.co/5ZoHvIJTfW

Best quote so far from the @councilofdc Committee of the Whole hearing on the @OPinDC proposed Comp Plan amendments: "Methinks the Office of Planning doth protest too much" https://t.co/E3Oly317np #shakespeare #artseverywhere #ofcoursethearts
