[Art-instructors] An Open Letter from Tallahassee Arts Educators in Support of Revitalizing Railroad Square

[Jeff Beekman]

Hi All,

The city of Tallahassee's Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) has its next meeting scheduled for Thursday, August 22nd. During this, they will hear from those pushing for the city to invest in the rebuilding of Railroad Square, much of which was destroyed in the May 10th tornadoes. While all are invited to show up at the 3:00 pm CRA meeting, it, unfortunately, conflicts with our 2:30 pm Fall '24 All College Meeting.

To register my support in my absence, I've created an open letter, the contents of which can be read via the below link:

If the contained feels like something that you would like to sign on to as well, I invite you to do so by including your name, position, and institution at the bottom. This will be shared with the city at the upcoming CRA meeting and any future meetings discussing the future of Railroad Square.

Thank you, and please feel free to share this letter with colleagues at FSU, FAMU, TSC, and local K-12 institutions.

Jeff
