ORANGE COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br />Meeting Date: September 8, 2011 <br />Action Agenda <br />Item No. ~ Q <br />SUBJECT• Orange County Arts Grant Recipients <br />DEPARTMENT: Orange County Arts PUBLIC HEARING: (Y/N) No <br />Commission <br />ATTACHMENT(S): <br />Copy of Awards to be Distributed <br />"Specific Attendee List to Follow" <br />INFORMATION CONTACT: <br />Martha Shannon, Arts Commission, <br />968-2011 <br />PURPOSE: To present checks to local artists and nonprofit organizations receiving Orange <br />County Arts Grants. <br />BACKGROUND: The Orange County Arts Commission awards grants to local nonprofit <br />organizations sponsoring arts projects using funds received from state government through the <br />Grassroots Arts Program of the North Carolina Arts Council. In 1985 the Orange County Arts <br />Commission was designated by the BOCC -and approved by the NC Arts Council - as the <br />Local Distributing Agent (now called Designated County Partner) to award state Grassroots Arts <br />Program funds to nonprofit agencies in Orange County. <br />All grants awarded to individual artists are paid via County funds. Grants are awarded for arts <br />programming in all arts disciplines for artistic merit and benefits to the residents of Orange <br />County. Each recipient must match the grant amount in order to receive funding. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: The $29,891 in state funds awarded to the Arts Commission in FY2011- <br />12 -for Arts Commission purposes and for granting to outside nonprofit agencies sponsoring <br />arts projects -represents apass-through of state funds. An additional $3,000 awarded to <br />individual artists is taken from Orange County money alreadyapproved in the FY2011-12 <br />budget for arts grants. . <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board acknowledge the local <br />recipients of the awards during the September 8, 2011 meeting with the presentation of checks <br />by the Board Chair. <br />
