<br /> ORANGE COUNTY
<br /> ARTS COMMISSION
<br /> MEMORANDUM
<br /> To: Board of County Commissioners
<br /> From: Katie Murray, Director
<br /> Date: March 1, 2021
<br /> RE: Eno Mill Arts Space Update
<br /> February marked one year since the opening of the Eno Mill Artist Studios.The pandemic provided an uncertain start;
<br /> after a preliminary full house going into March 2020, about half of the confirmed tenants decided against joining the
<br /> space due to concerns involving COVID-19. With the partnership of the mill owners, updates and improvements were
<br /> made to the space including a new air filtration system and the creation of two additional studios in what was supposed
<br /> to be open teaching space.
<br /> Throughout 2020,the OCAC slowly filled the studios, which are now on a waiting list. We committed at least two of the
<br /> eleven studios specifically for artists of color. Our current tenants represent a mixture of mediums, and reflect diversity
<br /> of age, race, gender, and career level.
<br /> In summer 2020,the mill owners presented an opportunity to generate additional, risk-free, revenue. In August,the
<br /> OCAC began renting "Suite 29," Phase 2 in the original Eno Mill plan presented in October, 2019.The original purpose
<br /> for this space was events, classes, and exhibits. Until these programs are possible,the OCAC is able to rent Suite 29 to
<br /> several large-scale artists.
<br /> Even in the face of the pandemic,the Eno Mill project is projected to generate a net profit of$6,250 in FY21, out-
<br /> performing projections.The conservative estimate for FY22 revenue is approximately$13K. Revenues will be reinvested
<br /> into the project, building the OCAC's capacity to offer new programs and events and continue to grow the project.
