Dear Members and Friends of
Miami Art Museum,
As you must know, Miami-Dade County recently announced a 2009-2010 fiscal year draft budget to accommodate a $400 million budget shortfall. The proposed plan includes substantial service cuts and workforce reductions, including a $12 million loss for arts and culture — the total loss to recreation and culture is over $20 million.
Miami Art Museum could lose vital funding, severely impacting our ability to present exciting art exhibitions and educational programs that serve our community and fill a critical need for our society.
A series of meetings will take place in the coming days providing you a wonderful opportunity to voice your concerns and make suggestions regarding these proposed budget cuts.
All meetings will take place at 6:00 p.m. Click on the link below for the schedule of meetings and directions. http://www.miamidade.gov/budget/budget_public_meetings.asp

Thank you for your support.
