#artisessential
& #39; Lobbying is a form of advocacy, with the intention of influencing decisions made by the Government.& #39;
& #39;The name lobbying came about because such activity would take place in the lobbies within governments before & after parliamentary debates.u2029 So you might have a few moments, just to pitch to someone you don& #39;t know, but who has the power to make decisions on your behalf& #39;
& #39;And we now know that that simple motivation has escalated to become an industry that& #39;s open to some really problematic machinations.u2029..First of all, you& #39;ve got to know the person who& #39;s tasks to make decisions on your behalf, or at least their close friends.& #39;
& #39;imagine if instead of lobbying artists created invitations for decision makers and others to meet, not to beg, or to be told what to do, but simply to get to know themselves, and each other better.u2029& #39;
& #39;We could have conversations about life, our lives, the world we currently exist in the world we might go on to create together.u2029 Such crucial Conversations shouldn& #39;t happen in closed rooms, while the rest of us wait in the lobby.u2029& #39;
& #39;Imagine if artists were the ones to create and Lead those spaces, because we all know about creating environments that are inviting and levy levelling inspiring and calming provoking and reflective.& #39;
