Please take a moment to send a letter of congratulations to Chairman Jimmy Van Bramer for securing his second term as Chair of the Cultural Affairs Committee.
You should also send letters of congratulations to all Cultural Affairs Committee Members. Crowley and King have served on the Committee before; everyone else is new. This is your opportunity to introduce them to your organization. Invite them to your openings and other events.
When writing to Council Member Ferreras, who serves on the Cultural Affairs Committee and will now Chair the Finance Committee, please make a point of congratulating her on becoming Chair of the Finance Committee.
All letters can be sent to
