Use caution when opening attachments or links. <br /> <br /> <br />Mayor and City Council, <br /> <br />I am writing a public comment in support of robust arts funding in the city of Santa Ana <br /> <br />There should be a minimum of 1 million dollars for artists grants and event sponsorships <br /> <br />The city should directly fund the artwalk, it’s a huge cultural necessity and brings lots of business. <br /> <br />A minimum of 1% funding from every new private development should be given to the arts. <br /> <br />Please fully fund the arts culture master plan as it has not been for 6 years. <br /> <br />Please hire a grant writer for the arts and culture department so they can find more funding for the arts in addition to <br />the funding stated above. <br /> <br />Please request a review of Bowers Museum funding; they receive 1 million dollars every year that should be centralized <br />and equitably shared through the Santa Ana arts community. <br /> <br />Thank you <br /> <br />- Harley <br /> <br />Sent from my iPhone <br />1 <br />
