Tomorrow! Wednesday Nov 2nd 10th Annual Artists Under the Dome Event!!
Tomorrow, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is inviting Massachusetts artists working in all disciplines (visual arts, literary, performing, crafts, new media, etc.) to the State House on Wednesday, November 2nd, from 9:30am to 2pm in the State House’s Great Hall to thank them for all they contribute to our state’s economy and quality of life.There will be a lunch time celebration for the 10th Anniversary and there will also be an afternoon panel unveiling MALC’s labor policy recommendations for the Commonwealth. The entire event is free and open to the public.
This year, for the first time, MALC will be inaugurating its “Champion of Artists Awards”. This will be an annual award given at every Artists Under the Dome event. The two awardees for 2016 are: Senator Daniel Wolf (Senate President Rosenberg will be accepting the award on his behalf) and State Representative Gloria Fox. MALC is thanking both of these legislators for their direct work with MALC and for their dedicated service to supporting the artist community. Both Senator Wolf and Representative Fox are not running for re-election and their spirit and dedication to supporting the Commonwealth’s artists of all disciplines will be missed at the State House.
The 2016 event is brought to you by The Massachusetts State Treasury, the Joint Committee on Tourism, Arts and Cultural Development, the Massachusetts Artists Leaders Coalition, the Executive Office of Housing and Economic Development, the Massachusetts Cultural Council, and the State House’s Cultural Caucus. Special thanks to the Epicenter Community!
