Senate President: Arts & Cultural Sector an Economic Engine
Massachusetts Senate President Therese Murray wrote a thoughtful column describing the arts and cultural sector as a powerful economic engine in her district and across the Commonwealth:
“To protect our growing creative economy, we must continue supporting important organizations like the MCC. Millions of visitors travel to Massachusetts every year, especially for our history, culture and art, and the dollars they spend here directly increase our bottom line. For that reason, it is clear that our creative sector and economy share an inextricable link. However, our creative sector offers so much more than its economic impact. It helps residents – both adults and children – to realize their true potential and create new ideas.”
