Sixteen organizations were chosen from an initial 307 possibilities to participate in the Animating Democracy Lab, a component of the Americans for the Arts Animating Democracy Initiative (ADI). Animating Democracy is a four-year programmatic initiative of the Americans for the Arts Institute for Community Development and the Arts. Animating Democracy is supported by the Ford Foundation and fosters artistic and humanistic activity that encourages civic dialogue on important contemporary issues. Over two funding cycles, the Animating Democracy Lab aims to identify and select a total of 30 arts -based civic dialogue projects, strengthen them through financial support and connections to other resources, and document their stories in the Americans for the Arts online national arts information clearinghouse. Sixteen projects were selected in July from 36 finalists for participation in the Animating Democracy Lab, representing a wide range of arts and humanities disciplines, civic issues, and aesthetic and dialogue approaches. Through this project, Americans for the Arts hopes to advance the creation and/or presentation of artistic activity that enhances dialogue on important civic issues of our time, and to advance field understanding about the philosophical, practical, aesthetic, and social dimensions of this work. The Animating Democracy Lab encourages experimentation and a testing of ideas and approaches to arts -based civic dialogue. The awardees represent a variety of organizations, including theater companies, presenters, community arts centers, a public art center, a state humanities council, an orchestra, a dance company, a university -based gallery, a state arts education organization, and an international exchange program. Geographically, they span the United States, from rural communities in Wisconsin and Hawai'i, to small towns and cities of Flint, Michigan and Amherst, Massachusetts, to urban centers and neighborhoods of New York City, Los Angeles, and San Antonio. Projects with statewide and national reach are located in Rhode Island and Seattle respectively. The projects will address a multiplicity of contemporary issues, including immigration, racism, cultural preservation and identity, youth violence, the environment, and ethical issues in biotechnology. The artistic activity is diverse as well, including theater, music, dance, visual arts, public art, and interdisciplinary projects. Project summaries can be found at http://www.artsusa.org/AnimatingDemocracy/lab_summary.html "We are excited about the richness and variety of this first round of projects," said Robert L. Lynch, President and CEO of Americans for the Arts. "They afford tremendous opportunity for mutual learning about arts -based civic dialogue through the combination of experience and experimentation evident among the sponsoring institutions, artists, and partners. Along with our partner, the Ford Foundation, we very much Dodie Horvitz - nimating emocracy ress ease age 2 look forward to supporting and following these projects as they unfold. We are eager to learn more through exchange among Lab participants about how the arts can help re-engage citizens in public discourse about the issues that affect them and, in the process, reinvigorate democracy in communities across America." In addition to conducting their projects, Animating Democracy Lab participants will come together in Learning Exchanges at which they can explore common questions or problems and draw on differing perspectives about best practices. Exchanges will occur as projects are evolving, providing a forum for ideas to develop. This is the first of two funding cycles for the Animating Democracy Lab. Guidelines will be available in September for organizations interested in applying during the second cycle. The Letter of Intent deadlines are January 23, 2001 for electronic submissions, and January 24, 2001 for mail -in submissions. To request the guidelines, or to order a copy of the study Animating Democracy: The Artistic Imagination as a Force in Civic Dialogue, contact Americans for the Arts at 202-371-2830 or adi@artsusa.org, or visit www.artsusa.org/AnimatingDemocracy. The Animating Democracy Initiative is founded on the premise that democracy at all levels of society is animated by an informed public engaged in the issues affecting people's daily lives and that the arts offer a fresh approach to engaging people in civic issues. Such innovations enhance an audience's experience of the arts, in addition to providing a rich aesthetic basis for considering contemporary issues. In addition to the Lab, the Animating Democracy Initiative published the study Animating Democracy: The Artistic Imagination as a Force in Civic Dialogue. Americans for the Arts will document and disseminate additional practical resources and scholarly research and writing about arts -based civic dialogue over the course of the Initiative. An interactive web site and searchable database, as part of the Americans for the Arts online national arts information clearinghouse, will centralize information for arts and civic dialogue leaders, report on Animating Democracy Initiative activities, link to other sites and provide a dynamic vehicle for communication and exchange. National convenings will bring together practitioners, scholars, civic leaders, critics, and the media and disseminate knowledge growing out of the Animating Democracy Initiative. Americans for the Arts is the national organization for groups and individuals dedicated to advancing the arts and culture in communities across the country. Toward this end, Americans for the Arts works with cultural organizations; arts, business, and cultural leaders; and patrons to provide leadership, research, visibility, professional development, and advocacy to advance support for the arts and culture in America. -end- JAN-.06-99 09 b 1 trtuPl u r � a yr . �.-,•------. _ i o ni-rT rN MATERIAL C.

City Council Minutes 4 BUSINESS SESSION October 20, 1998 1. CONTINUED CONSIDERATION OF THE CULTURAL ARTS COMMISSION 1998/99 WORK PLAN. Ms. Horvitz, Community Services Director, advised that the Cultural Arts Commission has revised the work plan as requested and is requesting that Council reconsider the "Meet the Local Artist" program and re-evaluate the program on the basis that it is not a recognition program, but rather a way to let the community know that the artists exist. In response to Council Member Adolph, Ms. Horvitz advised that the selection would be a random drawing conducted by the Commission, using the artist bank and names provided by the La Quinta Arts Foundation. They have not discussed how artists from neighboring cities might be included. In response to Council Member Perkins, Ms. Horvitz confirmed that recommendations from the community would be included in the drawing. Council Member Henderson wished to see it reduced to six, at least for the first year, and suggested using the Chamber Mixers and/or Mayor's Lunch to introduce the artists. She felt if the program is successful, that it could be revisited again next year. Council Member Sniff agreed with a bi-monthly program for this year's work plan, and in regard to updating the Art in Public Places Master Plan, he hoped that it would not include any legally compelling terms. Council Member Henderson suggested "review" instead of "update" of master plans. Council concurred. In response to Council Member Adolph, Ms. Horvitz advised that the commission felt if the program is done on a bi-monthly basis, that it would take a long time for all of the artists to participate. Council Member Adolph didn't have a problem with a bi-monthly program. MOTION - It was moved by Council Members Sniff/Henderson to approve the Cultural Arts Commission 1998/99 Work Plan as modified (using review instead of update the Art in Public Places Master Plan and changing the Meet the Artist Program to be bi-monthly instead of monthly). Motion carried unanimously. MINUTE ORDER NO. 98-163. i VII. CORR. & WRITTEN MATERIAL E.

Write for the Catalog. 1000 Vermont Avenue, NW Washington DC 2005 (202) 371-2830 Send a message to your community! Submit an op-ed to your local newspaper! National Arts and Humanities Month is an opportune time to highlight the value of the arts and humanities in an op-ed, an opinion piece that appears opposite the editorial page of your local newspaper. An op-ed enables you to raise public awareness of an issue while educating policy makers and positioning your agency as a resource for the media. Below you'll find some general guidelines and ideas for op-eds, including a checklist, tips, recommended talking points, and other uses for op-eds. When you do an op-ed, it is important to underscore your broader message of the value of the arts to your community and the people in it with examples and statistics of local significance; be sure to address specific issues and draw attention to the cultural life in your community. Op -Ed Checklist • Define the goal of the piece. Are you trying to: educate the public and policy makers, frame the issue, raise awareness, etc. Use National Arts and Humanities Month as a jumping-off point for your op-ed, not as the subject. • Select the best author. Sometimes an op-ed is most effective when it is ghost written for a prominent business leader or public figure by the person who can provide comprehensive information on the subject: You! • Timing. Always consider how the op-ed can be linked to a particular event to maximize its impact. Remember: Election time is coming! Use National Arts and Humanities Month as a strategic way to educate public officials about what happens year round. • Follow-up. Be sure to reconnect with the editor to see if/when your op-ed may be used. Offer to tweak it, if necessary to see it in print. Tips for Authors • Clear and concise. Your op-ed should be only about 500-800 words, including a suggested headline and byline, as well as a very short biographical statement about the author. • Remember the reader. Keep your sentences short and punchy. Back up general statements with facts and make the issue relevant to your community with anecdotes and/or examples. • Be creative! Take a fresh approach. Find a way to engage your reader start to finish. • Timeline. Newspapers take up to two weeks to publish an op-ed. Be patient, but keep in touch to find out the status of the piece once you've submitted it. Other Uses for Op-Eds • Letters to the editor. If the paper doesn't run your op-ed, feel free to resubmit it as a letter to the editor by paring it down to about 300 words. • Press releases. Adapt the op-ed for a press release for reporters and talk show/public affairs program directors. • Position statements. Use your piece as the framework for a position paper to distribute to key decision -makers and other audiences as appropriate. Recommended Themes and Talking Points • Specific Artists/Treasures. Each community, no matter what size or where, has its own artists and treasured cultural organizations. Each community has its own important patrons and supportive elected officials, its own local heroes for the arts and humanities. National Arts and Humanities Month can be a time to say thanks, to highlight the impact these artists made and the arts challenges ahead. • American opinion/polls. Most polls show that by a three -to -one margin, U.S. citizens are strongly supportive of the nation's government -supported arts programs. A marked majority of Americans, in fact, would support arts programs to the point of paying more in taxes — findings directly contrary to claims that the country has shifted against such federal, state, and local arts programs. Cite polling data or interview local leaders in your community for inclusion in your op-ed. • The arts mean business. The arts play a key role in community economic development. According to the findings of our study, Arts in the Local Economy, the nonprofit arts generate more than $37 billion in business in American communities, resulting in $34 billion in personal income to local residents. Nonprofit arts organizations, such as yours, support 1.3 million jobs in this country — more than police, firefighting, mining, or forestry. Our three-year study analyzed the message to decision makers and civic officials that investing in the arts yields economic benefits in addition to enhancing the quality of life in our nation. (For additional facts and figures related to the economic impact of the arts, please see Jobs, the Arts and the Economy, our executive summary of the study. Call us for information on obtaining additional copies of this 1994 publication.) • Rationale for National Arts and Humanities Month. "National Arts and Humanities Month is a special time to honor and learn more about cultural life in communities across the country. The arts and humanities play an important role in our lives year round. Here is an extraordinary chance to celebrate the cultural contribution to our nation." — Bob Lynch, President and CEO of Americans for the Arts. This is an opportune time to illustrate the value of arts and humanities programs to your community, perhaps specifically those that receive federal funding. Now is the time for your elected officials to hear what's important to the people they serve. Do you have questions on how to craft or place your op-ed piece? Feel free to call Americans for the Arts at 202.371.2830! National Arts and Humanities Month is sponsored by Americans for the Arts. Please call us at 202.371.2830 with questions or visit our website at www.artsusa.org. * �I A ~ ws release that you can adr _ * for use in your community!
