Art in the Market: NPR Debate on City of St. Augustine Artist Suppression Ordinance

At 9AM Thursday October 1, Michael Kahn, special legal counsel to the City of St. Augustine will be on hand for First Coast Connect , Melissa Ross' program on National Public Radio affiliate ,WJCT FM 89.9. Artist Greg Travous aka Suvo will also be in the studio for this discussion and call in show. Whatever position you hold, call the number (904) 549-2937 and make it a lively show.

You may catch the program on streaming audio no matter where you live...

Ask Mr. Kahn about the June 15, 2009 State Attorney General opinion that says local governments can't create their own misdemeanors by ordinance, ex nihilo. That's the job of the Florida legislature, which has not seen fit to adopt visual artist suppression ordinances.

Ask Mr. Kahn the total amount of money the City of St. Augustine has spent suppressing artists and entertainers, and why.
