On Friday June 17th, Governor Rick Perry signed the General Appropriations bill for the next two years. He did not veto the funding for the Texas Commission on the Arts. The agency will have a budget of $3.7 million for each of the next two years, which reflects a 50 percent reduction to the grants budget and a 30 percent reduction in staff.
Questions should be directed to Gary Gibbs, TCA executive director or Jim Bob McMillan, deputy director.
