Legislative Day
Tuesday, June 7, 2022
General Assembly Legislative Complex
Because of changes in the legislative calendar this year, we have moved our in-person Legislative Day to June 7, 2022. We will come together at Halifax Mall at the ARTS Day Pavilion Tent, get inspired and Speak UP for the Arts with our elected leaders.
Registration is FREE so join us and join your voices on June 7th!
NOTE: There will be no lunches provided at the tent this year. Feel free to bring your lunch or there are many downtown restaurants close by.
Registration is now closed but you can still join us on June 7th. Just come on over to our big tent behind the Legislative Building. There is no charge.

Next Steps
Follow these steps to make sure you’re connected and prepared to make the most of ARTS Day. The steps will be updated so check back for more information.
Connect with your County Captain
County Captains will make legislative appointments for folks in your area. See if your county has a leader, and if so, let them know you’re coming!
No County Leader? – DIY
You can make your own appointments with your legislators—it’s easy. We are suggesting that ARTS Day in-person appointments should be set for the morning of June 7.
