AI Summary
This resolution is a proclamation by the Rhode Island House of Representatives designating May 8, 2025, as "Arts Day in Rhode Island" to celebrate the cultural and economic significance of arts in the state. The resolution highlights several key points about the arts, including their economic impact (representing 3.3% of Rhode Island's GDP and supporting nearly 18,000 jobs), their role in community enrichment, and their positive effects on education (noting that arts education can improve school attendance). The resolution encourages all Rhode Islanders to reflect on how arts and culture enhance their lives and recognize the critical role of arts in communities. Additionally, it instructs the Secretary of State to send certified copies of the resolution to the Rhode Island State Council on the Arts (RISCA) and the Rhode Island Coalition for the Arts, formally documenting the state's recognition and support of the arts.
