"Norma Munn, chair of the New York City Arts Coalition, was fuming. As an organizer of the Coalition's June 23 "Forum for the Arts I," she'd tried to gather all six mayoral candidates on the stage of the Joyce Theatre to at least ponder the needs of the arts...the crowd was restless. Munn paced the stage and could contain herself no longer. 'They really don't care about us, they don't give a damn. We [at the coalition] asked the Charter Revision Commission to include arts and culture in their discussions and they haven't even replied to us. This,' she said, stopping to catch her breath, 'is a city with no cultural policy.'"
