Creating Public Value application now available; deadline February 11
Program supports arts projects in rural and underserved communities
The California Arts Council is pleased to announce the availability of its Creating Public Value Program (CPV) application. Deadline is February 11, 2010.
Through Creating Public Value, the California Arts Council will partner with small California arts organizations in rural and underserved communities to support new or expanded projects to highlight the fact that the arts are of benefit to all Californians and are worthy of state and federal investment. The California Arts Council defines public value as making a positive contribution to the individual and collective lives of all Californians through the arts.
In this context, CPV seeks proposals that address outcomes by utilizing the tools of the program identified as The Three Rs: Relationships (building new or expanding existing partnerships); Relevance (to audiences and community by expanding public participation); and Return on Investment (through public awareness, promoting your organization’s public value and social/economic impact to civic and political leaders, community supporters, audiences, and participants).
The CPV Program is funded in part by proceeds from the sale of the Arts License Plate, a specialty plate designed by noted California artist Wayne Thiebaud to support local arts programming and arts education.
