Bill > HB06736

This bill proposes to increase funding for the Artist Fellowship Program administered by the Department of Economic and Community Development by 50% for the two-year budget period (biennium) ending June 30, 2027. Specifically, the legislation seeks to boost the program's budget allocation for the fiscal year starting on June 30, 2025, with the goal of providing more financial support to artists. The Artist Fellowship Program appears to be a government initiative designed to support artists through monetary grants or fellowships, and this bill aims to enhance the program's resources, potentially allowing more artists to receive funding or increasing the amount of support provided to individual artists. The increase represents a significant expansion of financial support for the creative community within the state's budget.
