We were pleased that Governor Evers’ proposed FY2025–2027 budget included all three of our legislative initiatives to grow and strengthen Wisconsin’s arts and creative sector. Thanks to the thousands of people who shared stories and data with decision-makers—your advocacy mattered.

The League of Wisconsin Municipalities is seeking a Wisconsin artist or artist collaborative, in any artistic medium and/or media, to share/co-create their work as the Conference Artist-in-Residence at the League’s 2025 Annual Conference.

Submissions accepted until Tuesday, July 15, 2025, 5 pm

Republican members of the Legislature’s Joint Finance Committee (JFC) are moving forward with the 2025-27 state budget after recently striking hundreds of Gov. Tony Evers' proposals. We have the best chance in a long time to grow Wisconsin's investment in the arts, culture, and creativity through the Arts Board.
