To sign up, click here.

Headquarters will be in "The Well" of the Legislative Office Building in Albany which will provide a place to gather, network, pick up talking points, peruse exhibits and view performances. The Arts Day Hearing with celebrities will take place at 11 am in Hearing Room A.

PLEASE MAKE SURE TO BRING PHOTO ID. Thorough security procedures at the State Capital are in place. When entering the office buildings, one must produce photo ID. Bags are subject to search and all pass through check-points similar to the airports. During the day the concourse lines to enter the buildings are very long. Please plan accodingly and add addtional time. The Entrance to the New York State Capital Building on State Street is slightly more efficient and we recommend access at that point. Once you are admitted there, you can pass between the buildings seamlessly.
