Whereas, throughout the State, the South Carolina Arts Alliance also has continuously and successfully fostered public support of the arts and arts education; and
Whereas, the South Carolina Arts Alliance has been the voice of the South Carolina arts community nationally, advocating for continued support of the creative sector at the federal level; and
