    The Life and Death of the NEA (part 1)
    Jul 22 2025
    Arts funding in America has been nonexistent or woefully inadequate for most of our nation’s history. The administration’s 2025 cuts to the National Endowment for the Arts take a bad situation and makes it nearly impossible. In their debut episode, hosts Nathan Leigh and Danie Kohn analyze and discuss the available data on what projects had grants terminated or cancelled. They dive into the history of arts funding in America; a too brief tenure ripe with controversy from the very beginning. Find them @creative.fiasco / creativefiasco.com
