The Creative Coalition’s 2006 Capitol Hill
Celebration of American Arts
Washington, DC (Thursday, March 9, 2005):
The Creative Coalition will be leading a distinguished
and select delegation to Congress and the White House to
meet with national policy leaders to discuss the future
of Federal funding for the arts and arts in
education. In a time of varying viewpoints and shifting
priorities, it is critical that we keep the arts front
and center in the minds of our political leaders. The
day culminates with The Creative Coalition and
Washington Life Magazine’s 2006 Capitol Hill
Celebration of the Arts. The event will feature The
Creative Coalition’s annual Ultimate Gift Bag Gala where
attendees will have the opportunity to choose the most
deluxe and state-of-the-art
merchandise
— the Ultimate in luxury from the worlds of
fashion, beauty, entertainment, electronics and travel
for your shopping pleasure.
