Speaking out in 2017 and what arts leaders are doing
In February, we published a letter from one of our readers, who complained that the leaders of our arts community, and the institutions they represent, have failed to speak out, and failed to formulate a coordinated response to the actions and the policies of the Trump administration which adversely affect, or threaten to adversely affect, their ability “to enlighten, to educate, and to enrich our lives” through art. The issues our reader identified in his letter were Trump’s immigration ban, state and federal funding cuts for the arts, sanctuary cities, and Trump’s appointment of Betsy DeVos as Secretary of Education.

After receiving and publishing the letter, we reached out to many of the leaders of Philadelphia’s arts community, and the institutions they represent, and asked them whether they in fact were doing anything directly in response to the actions and policies of the new administration.
Our reach-out was targeted to the big institutions that we consider to have a leadership role in the city’s visual culture community. While we reached out to more, those who responded and with whom we spoke are representatives of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Institute for Contemporary Art, the Barnes Foundation, the Woodmere Art Museum, the American Jewish History Museum, Mural Arts Philadelphia, Temple Contemporary and the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance (GPCA).
With the exception of the GPCA (the arts lobbying group), Temple Contemporary and ICA the short answer is this: none of the institutions we contacted have to date taken any direct, affirmative, public action in response to the policies or actions of the Trump administration. Behind the scenes, however, a number of the leaders we spoke with have been lobbying in favor of saving the NEH and NEA.
