On July 11th, Fulton County Board of Commissioners met and voted on Fulton County Arts Commission’s Contract for Services. This motion failed to receive four affirmative votes – which holds-up over $1.4 million in funding for Fulton County-based arts organizations like ACP.

Vice Chair Darnell and Commissioner Edwards voted against the approval (Districts 5 & 7, respectively), and Commissioners Hausmann and Lowe did not vote.

If you live in Commissioner Hausmann’s District 3 (Alpharetta & John’s Creek) and you’d like to urge her to support the arts in Fulton County, Commissioner Hausmann is available by email at liz.hausmann@fultoncountyga.gov and by phone at 404-612-8213.

If you live in Commissioner Lowe’s District 4 (Buckhead, Sandy Springs & Roswell) and you’d like to urge him to support the arts in Fulton County, Commissioner Lowe is available by email at tom.lowe@fultoncountyga.gov and by phone at 404-612-8213.

Please contact your commissioners in time for their Wednesday, August 1st meeting where they will vote again to address funding for the arts in Fulton County.
