Cultural Council Agenda 5-19-2016 Page 2 of 2 XI. Arts Grants (Adam) Awarding grants based on previous projects may need to change due to covid, Katie said any changes should be posted by October to give time for applications. Katie suggested using grants to fund artists equipment/professional development/online programs. Grants in the past have been focused on proving programming/art to Louisville residents, maybe this grant should be more focused on the artists. Katie suggested to break up the $10,000 to word that some of the money is for professional development and some for projects. Katie asked how do we help applicants that are not in Louisville to receive funds for professional development, Adam. Kate suggested if artists have a connection, previous performances, work, moved recently that have contribute to the Louisville art Scene can apply. Katie will draft up wording for the application to include equipment/professional development/materials/supplement artists to do charity work. Wording to include, ongoing charitable efforts to help artists to continue their efforts. XII. Fall Programming (Leah, not present)) Adam: Leah send an email regarding fall programming. Kim reached out to fall programming in the past, questions about does the LCC have insurance for groups. Katie, using community park can work with proper instructions and compliance, but if it doesn't reach more than 75 people is it worth the effort. Is pumpkin carving possible in October? Discussion about size/viability. Beth suggested a virtual online submission for pumpkins, LCC agrees to ask Robbie to move it forward. Beth will email Robbie to explain the LCC's decision. Katie said the LCC budget is still there for fall programing that can be used for other purposes, some of the funds can be moved, example, library has art programs that needs help with funding. LCC agrees to to help fund other art programs happening in the city. Beth moves to approve funds up to $3000 between now and the next meeting, Kim Seconds.
