There was no resulting cash surplus. <br />All future surpluses will be used to support the Calico Makers Market - <br />through our hands-on art tent, our performance art programming or future <br />endeavors to continue providing an outlet to promote art through <br />community engagement. <br />If the current or next <br />year budget <br />represents a 30% <br />change (or greater) <br />from the year prior, <br />please explain why. <br />W e want to increase our reach through the purchase of radio time, which is <br />an expensive investment for us. The expectation is an increased reach will <br />lead to more attendees which will in turn allow us to charge higher booth <br />fees, creating more profit to put back into the organization. <br />To date, we have been lucky enough to rely on favors from musical artists <br />who support our cause and play for below-market rates. In order to retain <br />our current roster of performers and seek out new and more participatory <br />acts, we need to spend more funds. The expectation is this improvement to <br />our music program will also lead to more attendees, higher booth fees, and <br />more profit. <br />Our hope is to use the Grassroots Arts grant to make these increases to <br />our budget this year, thus allowing us to gain traction in generating <br />sufficient funds to expand the market and our services. <br />Are you an entity of <br />UNC-Chapel Hill or <br />another unit of state <br />government? <br />No <br />PROJECT/PROGRAM <br />INFORMATION <br />Tell us about your project or program <br />Title of Grant <br />Request <br />Calico Makers Market Performing Arts Program <br />Docusign Envelope ID: 8E18F119-7211-4F24-B38C-ACD7E96F6DC4
