<br />Ibarra, Evelyn <br />From:Sandra Esmeralda De Anda <andasandes@gmail.com> <br />Sent:Tuesday, May 7, 2024 2:58 PM <br />To:eComment <br />Subject:Arts Funding - Item 30 Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Budget Workstudy Session <br /> Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana. Use caution when opening attachments or links. <br />Dear Mayor Valerie Amezcua and Santa Ana City Council Members, <br /> <br />Today, I am advocating for increased arts funding within our city. As a local published writer and writing <br />instructor, I've witnessed firsthand the transformative power of investing in programs that may otherwise be <br />inaccessible to low-income and first-generation immigrants in our community. While some artists, including <br />myself, seek funding from external sources such as foundations, reliance on such avenues shouldn't be the <br />standard practice, particularly when our art often reflects the essence of Santa Ana, our home. <br />Over the past decades, I've observed Santa Ana evolve into a vibrant literary hub and a haven where artists <br />freely express themselves through mediums like murals, sculpture, and exhibitions. Sustaining this cultural <br />growth necessitates a robust local investment in the arts. <br />Thank you for your consideration. <br />Sandra - Ward 4 <br />1 <br />
