Direct Action Opportunities During Troubled Times
posted Aug 06, 2025
At a moment rife with existential threats to the visual arts and higher education, CAA members, affiliates, friends, and allies can make an impact by taking direct action. It is for this reason that the CAA Advocacy Committee has assembled the following list of resources to help you get involved:
- The National Coalition Against Censorship and Vera List Center for Art and Politics coordinated along with several other stakeholders an Arts and Culture Statement of Values and Principles. CAA as an organization is a signatory, but there is power in numbers, and as individuals, we encourage you to sign on here.
- View the Phi Beta Kappa Society Toolkit Resources page for direct action opportunities.
- Visit the Americans for the Arts Advocate page for ways to take action.
- Find out how to contact your representatives here to make your voice heard.
Do you have other resources CAA should consider listing on this page? Contact us via email with the subject line Direct Action Resources. For more information about CAA advocacy and our current Board-adopted advocacy policy, please visit our website.
