MCC Launches New Plan to Rebuild Support for the Arts, Humanities & Sciences

MCC logoThe Massachusetts Cultural Council (MCC) released a new plan that aims to rebuild public support for the nonprofit arts, humanities, and sciences over five years through collective advocacy and reinvestment in the nonprofit cultural sector.

The MCC’s five-year strategic plan is the fruit of conversations with hundreds of its constituents through four public forums, an online survey, and dozens of focused meetings with stakeholders in communities across the state. Leaders from nonprofit cultural organizations, individual artists, educators, state legislators and executive branch officials, and business leaders all participated in this effort. MCC also employed new polling data from MassINC showing broad public support for using arts and culture to enhance the quality of life in Massachusetts cities, and for public investments in those efforts.
