I am Michelle Barnes, Artist and co-founder of the Community Artists' Collective. We are deeply rooted in the heritage of Houston's 3rd Ward. We are deeply committed to serving all people of Houston though our art related work with individuals and other organizations across the city. It is good and I appreciate this opportunity to share this particular time and space m=with my colleagues in service to the people of our city and country to symbolize the ties we have with each other and many others across the nation working in our field of dreams and endeavor. We are tied to each other as artists, educators, administrators, mothers, fathers, and as people who vote, people who care. People who are practicing, perfecting, and professionalizing the art of giving back to our communities across the country. We want the National Endowment for the Arts. It must continue to be an agency of the people of America but the National Endowment for the arts must respect the people it serves. The Congress must let the NEA do the work it knows should be done.
