Body
BACKGROUND:
The City's Public Art Ordinance provides that ten percent (10%) of the Public Art fees received by the City may be expended for "Art Education". This term is defined in Section 11.45.020 of the Municipal Code as "... any publicly available class, lecture, program or similar event related in some manner to the arts, including, but not limited to, lectures, classes, concerts, forums, teaching presentations or speaking engagements pertaining to the visual, auditory and/or cultural arts.
In recommending expenditures of the Public Art Fund for Art Education, the Commission follows these guidelines: Consider how any recommended expenditure for Art Education will provide or enhance a public service or community amenity; consider whether the expenditure is consistent with the Public Arts Master Plan and its Mission Statement and consider whether the expenditure is consistent with the purpose of the City's Public Art ordinance.
