For this #GoodWorkFriday, we're focused on @colorscapechenangoartsfestival, which celebrated its 25th year this year.
GOLDEN was proud to be a sponsor of the event, as well as to provide a creative activity for attendees of the festival. Employee-owners from GOLDEN volunteered their time to help attendees paint shirts with GOLDEN paints.
We look forward to many more years supporting this wonderful local art festival! #goldenpaints

We're taking you behind the scenes in the lab to show you the GHT test. Also known as the Greasy Hand Test, this is meant to test paint formulations against handling with dirty hands. As you can see on the left, when a formulation doesn't pass the test grease from dirty hands can impact the surface. #goldenpaints #TechTuesday
For this #GoodWorkFriday, we're putting down our paintbrushes and picking up a few textbooks. Did you know that GOLDEN partners with @sunymorrisville to hold classes here at the GOLDEN factory This semester, we're hosting English and Economics courses which are open to GOLDEN employees working on their degrees, as well as students from the surrounding area. #goldenpaints

This week on #GoodWordFriday, Mark Golden is talking about Americans for the Arts Advocacy:
Over the last three years, Americans for the Arts @americans4arts has been increasing membership among both artists and non-artists alike to create a powerful advocacy voice for artists both nationally and at the state and local levels. The AFTA Action Fund now has over 400,000 members and growing. According to AFTA, this Arts Action Fund is “the only national arts advocacy organization dedicating 100% of our time, money, and political clout to advancing the arts in America.” It costs no money to join this fund. It just requires you signing up at https://okt.to/8IsbHa. Or, click the link in our bio! Signing up allows you to vote on AFTA’s advocacy on legislative policy initiatives, receive the latest news and alerts on changes in Federal funding for the arts, and receive quarterly updates and access to a member’s only Arts Action Fund PAC. We are much stronger together as we fight for our children’s right to a quality arts education, as we “rally national support against attacks to the arts," and as we “build political influence to ensure bipartisan support for the arts.” The Arts Action Fund is a 501(c)(4) nonprofit organization affiliated with Americans for the Arts. For full disclosure, I am a member of the Board of the Americans for the Arts. I believe in their advocacy for all of our benefits and hope that you join this fight with us. --Mark Golden
