DocuSign Envelope ID: 75DCDCOD-6895-4D01-9BF9-B9673F3C2D63 By offering educational art programming during the event, we have been able to reach many children who might otherwise not get this type of artistic educational exposure. The Children's Art Educational Area has been very successful and wonderfully received. It often has so many children that the parents pitch in to help, and activities spread beyond the tables onto the lawn. We will continue to hire visual and performing artists that will be offering direct interaction with the younger audiences. Tim Wells will be the Children's Program Planner for Last Fridays. The multi- talented Tim is a teacher with experience in early childhood and middle school and a professional musician. He has provided children's programs at festivals and parties and will bring his creativity and expertise to enliven our own Last Fridays this year. In addition to Tim and the assistants he enlists,we pay a clown and a potter to demonstrate their skills and entertain. This year's new Last Fridays Chairman, Thomas Watson,is increasing outreach efforts to Blacks/African Americans through contacting and involving churches, vendors, and bands with ties and greater appeal to that community. As part of our efforts to reach the Latino Community,the Family Success Alliance will have a table at Last Fridays with a Spanish language translator. Our mission is"to enrich our community through the arts." We would like to continue bringing educational opportunities to the public through existing venues, including Last Fridays. 6 Application Checklist (do not staple, bind, or put into individual folders) Please include the following materials in your application packet in the following order: 1 copy each: (only 1 sided, 81/2"x 11", white paper) and 1 complete electronic copy(in PDF format): Applicant Information Sheet (Page One of Grant Application Form) Narrative Budget Sheet • Itemized Budget (if necessary) Signature Page • Resumes of key artists and administrators involved in grant funded program(s). 2013-14, 201415, 2015-16 Organizational Budgets. • Artist contact list, including names, address, phone numbers, and email (if applicable) of all artists involved in grant funded activities.
