Arts leaders from across Illinois gathered in Springfield last week to lay the groundwork for future legislation and expanded state support.

One of those on hand advocating for the arts was Luke O’Neill, founder of Union Streets Arts and Vice President of the Marion Cultural and Civic Center Foundation.

WSIU's Brad Palmer spoke with him about the experience.
