Wtf. Will the muralists ever get included? We got stiffed completely. I knew from the beginning that deficit was a f-ing lie. These aholes immediately want to put out negative speculative lies in headlines to make the general public distrust whatever person they are trying to shut down. If u cast doubt folks will immediately start casting judgement.
Like with most government funding ordeals, I think the squeaky wheel will get the grease -- I don't think muralists should give up, but they may need to organize and take their demands to the Arts Commissioners and City Council.
I'm not positive when muralist funding was on the Art Commission's approval ballot, but if it was in either the July or August vote, the Director of Finance has said they will make all recipients whole for 100% what they were approved. If that's when muralists were approved, I'd use that as your pledge from the city that you have to get your funding. And even if it wasn't approved in those meetings, it is well worth pushing.
