Their goal is to get 20,000 messages sent by January 13th, which will feature a march on Albany. Their intention is to bring as many people as possible to the Capital to meet with their elected representatives. Their specific message is to oppose the Governor's proposed cuts to the New York State Council on the Arts 2008-2009 budget funding.
