us states culture funding cuts morning links 1234747960

The article reports that despite the Trump administration's efforts to eliminate federal funding for cultural agencies like the NEA, NEH, and IMLS, many US states have continued to support their arts and humanities agencies, though at reduced levels. According to the National Assembly of State Arts Agencies (NASAA), states and territories allocated nearly $650 million to these agencies in fiscal year 2026, a 7.4% drop from 2025. While 29 states increased arts funding, others saw significant cuts: New Hampshire reduced its arts funding by 90% due to a revenue shortfall, while California, Missouri, Kansas, and Hawaii also experienced notable reductions. Conversely, Florida, North Dakota, Connecticut, and Oregon increased their arts appropriations, helping to offset overall losses. Per capita, Minnesota leads arts funding at $7.85, while New Hampshire, Georgia, and Wisconsin allocate less than $0.20.

The center, designed pro bono by Morphosis Architects and The NOW Institute, will offer art-making instruction, studio space, materials, and exhibition opportunities, with the goal of connecting emerging artists to curators and galleries.
