Check out this initiative aimed to help create some jobs that will, in turn, help artistic institutions become more financially viable.

I think it's a great move. As much as simply giving money to museums and such would help, as much as just handing money to artists would help their specific problems, it's not practical to do that for extended periods of time and it does nothing to ensure the future stability of these institutions. Use the money to create positions dedicated to creating a self-sustaining strategy...that's when the arts will really thrive.
