An Equal Opportunity Agency
Supported in part by the
National Endowment for the Arts
To the Honorable Janet Napolitano
Governor of the State of Arizona
Dear Governor Napolitano:
We are pleased to submit to you and the citizens of Arizona the summary report of the Commission for the 2004 fiscal year.
This report fulfills the requirements of the act which established the Arizona Commission on the Arts (A.R.S. 41-981).
Through the Arizona Commission on the Arts, the State makes a strategic investment of public dollars which create value
through the arts. We can point to four areas where the arts play key roles in improving the quality of life and are delivering value
to the Grand Canyon State.
Opportunities for all Arizonans to Participate
  Reports for 2003-04 show 7,121,268 people in all Arizona counties participated in Arts Commission-sponsored programs;
some people who attended multiple events may be reported more than once.
  32% of projects take place in rural areas.
  15% of projects were initiated by ethnic-run organizations.
  ARTability - Accessing Arizona’s Arts is a statewide consortium - the only of its kind in the nation - connecting people with
disabilities to arts experiences. More than 50 state organizations engage older Arizonans and individuals with disabilities
through physical access to arts facilities, large print programs, open captioning and audio description.
Preparing the Thinkers of Tomorrow
  More than 1,811,465 students reached by Arts Commissioned-sponsored activities and programs.
  279 projects reached Arizona’s young people and students (61% of all ACA projects).
  Education projects include artists-in-residence in schools and after-school programs, artist-teacher institutes, outreach by
arts organizations, programs by organizations whose primary mission is arts education.
Building Vital Communities
  State dollars invested stimulated more than $101 million in matching funds from other sources, including individuals,
foundations, corporations and governments.
  Special programs, such as the Northern Arizona Book Festival and the annual Basketweavers Gathering at the Heard
Museum promote tourism and destination activities.
  Community festivals demonstrate Arizona’s unique cultures to broad audiences. These festivals include Hispanic music
festivals, Chinese Week, Native American Culture Days and others.
Investing in the Future of Arizona’s Businesses
  State funding provides a foundation of support to 133 small-to-large arts organizations.
  The interest income from the State Arts Endowment provides training in financial and strategic planning and the
development of working capital reserves.
How were these projects selected? Project applications are reviewed by community representatives from across the state,
people who represent the diversity and range of Arizona’s population. These panels review application materials and make
recommendations for funding to the Commission, who then makes the final decisions on allocation of funds.
Guidance is provided by the fifteen Governor-appointed Commission members and from community leaders, educators and arts
professionals who have taken part in the Commission's planning process. With their advice, we are currently leading a Listening
Tour around the state to ask arts organizations, artists, communities and arts educators how we can best go forward for the next
five years. The results of this research and dialogue will hone our efforts in the coming years.
Yours Respectfully,
Dennis Kavanaugh
Commission Chair
The Arts Across Arizona
by Dennis Kavanaugh
A group of seventh graders are sitting at a table with a
group of World War II veterans in Tucson. The young
people patiently ask question after question of their elders.
They are methodically collecting the personal stories and
historic photographs from Tucsonians who experienced
World War II. One man quietly speaks about baking bread
for the troops at night and working an anti-aircraft gun
during the day. Another man talks about being on the USS
Nevada during the Pearl Harbor attack. A woman explains
how she became a pilot in the WASPSs and flew airplanes.
Each story keeps the students spellbound as they listen.
The project is the brainchild of the arts group called Voices:
Community Stories Past & Present. Not only are these
students learning research and writing skills, they also are
connecting with the wisdom of their elders, learning social
skills, teamwork and cooperation. The end result will be a
small booklet that collects these oral histories, creating an
important archive for future generations. A teacher writes,
“I have watched young people transformed into mature
young adults as they listen and document stories of
veterans, Holocaust survivors and people on the home
front.”
Look closer at the program and you’ll see that the state
helps sponsor this event through the Arizona Commission
on the Arts. The World War II Intergenerational Project is
just one of hundreds of projects funded by the state’s Arts
Commission. The Arizona Commission on the Arts
awarded statewide grants to arts organizations and schools
and through these programs, Arizonans will have
opportunities to participate in community festivals;
education programs in schools and after school;
performances, exhibitions, readings, lectures and
workshops in the performing, visual, literary and folk arts.
If you look where the grants go, you’ll see projects taking
place in every country of the state, all in partnership with
schools and arts organizations of all sizes and arts
disciplines. You’ll also be surprisedc at the broad range of
projects funded, programs that include artists in the
classroom in Bullhead City, a Drug Elimination Family
Awareness Program using folklorico dance in Glendale, a
poetry project with students in Tuba City and Tempe’s
Childsplay takes its imaginative theater to more than 300
schools each year. These projects touch rural Arizona in
powerful ways, providing experiences that might never
happen without some sort of seed monies from the state.
How were these projects selected for funding? More than
100 citizens from around Arizona gathered to review
proposals. These panelists brought not only arts and
education expertise but also the values and knowledge of
the needs of their own local communities, making the
selection process thoughtful and well-considered. In the
coming year, each of these projects is subjected to
rigorous scrutiny before any funds are issued and each
group must be accountable for how the funds are used.
We are learning that the arts are a kind of glue that holds
communities together. President George W. Bush explains
the study and appreciation of the arts and humanities serve
as both a unifying force in society and as a vehicle for
individual expression. We use the arts to communicate with
each other.
We also know that the arts play an essential role in
education in Arizona and that’s why 41 percent of the
projects involve schools and after-school programs, giving
young people opportunities to create and to learn about
other cultures as well as their own.
As we seek to attract new business to the state, we have
learned that these industries are looking for environments
that provide quality education and quality arts experiences.
The arts also play a key role in the state’s tourism
strategies. Last year, more than 8 million people
participated in events supported by the Arizona
Commission on the Arts.
In the difficult months after September 11, 2001, people
turned time and time again to the arts for ways to express
the inexpressible-and even the unbearable. The arts
provided solace in many ways. The song God Bless
America became for a time a kind of national anthem, sung
at almost every public gathering. And while the arts give us
voice in expressing the difficult moments of our lives, they
also bring us joy. Arizona’s investment in the arts is repaid
many times over. The arts change people’s lives, they
improve the quality of our lives and they make Arizona a
better place.
Agency Overview
The Arizona Commission on the Arts is the state agency
that connects artists and communities across the Grand
Canyon State. With a staff of 19, the Commission manages
an array of diverse programs and services for Arizona
residents.
The Commission is currently operating under its 2000-2006
Strategic plan, “Linking Up” which encompasses the
following vision, mission and goals.
Our Vision
An Arizona where all citizens experience the arts as
integral to their lives.
Our Mission
To enhance the artistic development of all Arizona
communities, arts organizations and artists through
innovative partnerships and stewardship of public funds.
Goals
  All people in Arizona have access to diverse arts
experiences.
  Artistic and management skills of artists and arts
organizations are strengthened.
  The essential role of the arts in teaching and learning,
particularly in K-12, is accomplished.
  Access to arts information is provided through both
“high-tech” and “high-touch” services.
  Public policy is favorable towards Arizona’s arts
industry.
  Stable financial resources to implement the plan exist.
The History
When Congress created the National Endowment for the
Arts in 1965, they also gave funding to all state
governments to form state arts commissions and asked
them to conduct surveys of each state’s existing facilities,
organizations and individuals engaged in the arts.
Governor Samuel P. Goddard established the Arizona
Commission on the Arts and Humanities as a state council
by executive order on January 24, 1966. The 28th Arizona
Legislature passed S.B. 139, establishing the Arizona
Commission on the Arts and Humanities as a permanent
state agency, and Governor Jack Williams signed the bill
on March 13, 1967.
The Arts Commission became the official agency of the
State of Arizona “to stimulate and encourage public interest
in the cultural resources, through the study and
presentation of the performing arts and fine arts, to ensure
that their role in the life of our communities will continue to
grow and will play an even more significant part in the
welfare and educational experience of our citizens.” In
1982, Governor Bruce Babbitt signed enabling legislation
continuing the agency to 1992, and changing its name to
the Arizona Commission on the Arts. Again in 1992, the
Legislature and Governor Fife Symington reinstated the
agency until 2002. In 2001, the Auditor General’s office
conducted a nine-month-long Sunset Audit. The following
year, the Legislature reauthorized the agency until 2012.
Agency Overview
The Commission's leadership reaches into all areas of the
state, supporting programs that contribute to student
learning, connect people in rural communities and urban
centers, that preserve the rich traditions of Arizona's ethnic
communities, encourage participation by people with
disabilities and by citizens of all ages and strengthen
artistic and administrative skills of arts organizations to help
position them to better serve the people of Arizona.
Through the Arizona Commission on the Arts, the state
makes a strategic investment of public dollars to assure
Arizona's competitive edge in attracting knowledge workers
and their businesses. The diversity of our artistic offerings
also becomes a magnet for attracting tourists. This public
investment encourages contributions from the private
sector and leverages these dollars many times over,
contributing enormously to the quality of life and education
opportunities the people of Arizona expect.
The agency represents the arts in policy discussions
including economic development, cultural tourism,
education, community development, public art and
transportation design.
The Arts Commission
The Governor of Arizona appoints 15 commission
members to a governing board. The commission members
award grants and formulate policy consistent with the
enabling legislation. Commission members serve three-year
terms and are selected to ensure geographic and
ethnic representation from of all areas of the state. They
are selected for their good judgement, demonstrated ability
and experience in arts-related fields.
All grants and awards from the Arts Commission are made
in accordance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,
Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, American
Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination Act of 1975 and
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972.
The Commission's History
1972
The Commission’s programs begin with three Arizona
artists serving one school district. Today, 32 years later,
the Artists in Residence (Arts Education) and other
education programs provide opportunities for more than
200 artists reaching schools with more than 5,000 contacts
each year by artists and arts organizations. Many of the
artists who worked in the early years of the program now
rank among Arizona’s most successful practicing artists
and their former students are found in today’s arts
audiences; some have even followed their mentors to
become working artists.
1974
The Commission’s Expansion Arts program, serving
Arizona’s ethnic populations, is the first state program of its
kind in the nation. The program encourages the
presentation and preservation of Arizona’s rich ethnic
traditions.
1976
In response to Arizona towns’ desire for quality performing
arts events in their communities, the Commission initiates
the Art-in-Arizona Towns program. Performing artists
visit communities for three to six days, giving performances
and workshops.
In partnership with social service organizations, the
Commission begins the Ticket Discount program to help
people with disabilities and elderly citizens attend
performing arts events. (The program is active for 15
years.)
1978
The National Endowment for the Arts awards the Arts
Commission a Challenge Grant of $480,000 to distribute
among eight major cultural institutions. This special three-year
grant requires the institutions to match each federal
dollar with three dollars or more of new and increased
giving. The institutions actually match the grant with seven
dollars of private donations to each federal dollar. This
same year the Commission awards general operating
support grants to large institutions. The Challenge Grant
and Basic Aid demonstrate the commitment of the Arts
Commission to contribute to the continued artistic
development of our statewide cultural treasures.
The Artists Fellowship program begins awarding
fellowships in the visual arts followed in subsequent years
by awards in performing arts and creative writing. The
program underscores one of the Commission’s primary
goals: recognition and support for Arizona’s artists.
Fellowship awards provide individual artists the opportunity
for research, development and creation of new work. (The
program continues for 24 years.)
When Governor Bruce Babbitt commissions works of art by
Arizona artists for two new buildings in the Capitol Mall, the
Commission designs and implements an Art in Public
Places program that assists local communities in
selecting, commissioning and funding art for public spaces.
With the support of a National Endowment for the Arts
fellowship grant to Executive Director Louise Tester, the
Commission begins a pilot project of cultural exchange with
Mexico. This International Exchange program
(International Arts Exchange) provides assistance for
Arizona artists to tour Mexico and other countries and for
international artists to tour Arizona.
1980
The Governor’s Arts Awards program begins with
Governor Bruce Babbitt presenting the first awards to
recognize excellence in individual and corporate support of
the arts. The Governor’s Arts Awards program continues
as a joint project of the Governor’s Office, Arizonans for
Cultural Development and the Arizona Commission on the
Arts.
The Commission designs the Organization Development
Program (ODP) as a specialized training program to give
technical assistance to the boards and staffs of Arizona’s
developing arts organizations. Today the program, now
known as General Operating Support, provides funding
and technical support to more than 140 Arizona arts
organizations which produce ongoing public programs.
1981
The Commission initiates the Design program to offer
technical assistance to communities and nonprofit
organizations in graphic design and the planning of cultural
facilities: performing arts centers, galleries, museums,
cultural parks and artists’ spaces.
1982
As a result of a positive performance review conducted of
state agencies by the Arizona Auditor General’s office,
Governor Bruce Babbitt signs enabling legislation
continuing the agency to July 1, 1992, and officially
changes its name to Arizona Commission on the Arts.
1984
Arizona becomes a partner with Meet the Composer, Inc.,
the national service organization which promotes the music
of living American composers, encourages the
commissioning of new music and develops audiences for
the music of our time.
1987
The Arts Commission celebrates its twentieth anniversary
with the completion of a major research project resulting in
a statewide arts plan, Arizona: The Arts in Partnership,
1987 - 1990. The plan gives visibility to Arizona’s model
arts programs and shows how the arts can serve as
partners with other sectors in promoting Arizona’s artistic
resources.
1988
The Arizona Commission on the Arts joins six other state
arts agencies in a national consortium which receives a
three-year Challenge Grant to support individual artists
from the National Endowment of the Arts.
The Local Arts Agencies project begins to assist new
and developing local arts agencies with program planning
and administrative and organizational skills. The project
increases awareness and accessibility of the arts in each
participating community.
The Arts Commission, with the Arizona Department of
Education, completes the first Statewide Survey on the
Status of Arts Education in Arizona Public Schools,
1988. Educators, arts administrators and community
leaders attend a retreat to assess the survey information
and issue a consensus statement called The Oak Creek
Accord, detailing a five-year plan for the future growth and
direction of arts education in Arizona.
1989
To support individual artists in all disciplines for specific
projects, the Commission creates the Artist Project
program. The program supports and encourages artists’
ideas, dreams and needs, encouraging collaborations and
interdisciplinary projects.
The State Legislature establishes the Arizona Arts Trust
Fund, by adding fifteen dollars to the annual corporate
filing fee. The program increases general operating support
for arts organizations and requires participating
organizations to document a plan to include
representatives of racial and ethnic minorities on their
boards.
The Commission’s Education projects assist schools and
arts education organizations and help make the arts basic
to education. Strong emphasis is placed on collaborations
among arts disciplines and the use of community resources
in the arts.
1990
In an innovative partnership between artists, private
enterprise, prosecutors, law enforcement and educators,
the Anti-Drug A.P.P.L.E. Corps places artists in after-school
programs to help youth, family and community to
reject drugs. The program is supported with RICO funds
from the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office.
The Arizona Arts Congress, in conjunction with Arizonans
for Cultural Development and Arizona Alliance for Arts
Education, brings more than 300 people to the Arizona
Capitol to hear legislators speak about the arts and attend
a luncheon with their legislators.
Arizona Dance on Tour increases the audiences for high-quality
dance presentations. National touring artists present
concerts and residencies with local dance companies and
communities.
The Tribal Museum program (Tribal Museum
Assessment) provides technical assistance to established
and emerging tribal museums and cultural centers. The
Commission surveyed more than 25 Arizona tribes to
identify needs of tribal museums and their communities.
Technical assistance includes on-site consultants and
salary assistance.
1991
The Commission’s Rural Assistance program provides
technical assistance to rural sponsors for exhibition
development. A series of workshops, held in Bisbee,
Flagstaff, Globe and Sacaton, provides training in audience
development, education programs, care and preservation
of artwork, working with historic buildings and developing
exhibition seasons. (The program was active for two
years).
The Arts Commission joins the Arizona Department of
Education and the fine arts departments of the three state
universities in a collaborative effort to make the arts a part
of basic education. The Directory of Arizona Exemplary
Fine Arts Sites, K - 8, Arizona Arts Education Research
Institute and Artist Teacher Institutes are the results of
this joint effort.
1992
As part of a national campaign, Arizona Save Outdoor
Sculpture! locates and inventories publicly accessible
outdoor sculpture while increasing public awareness of the
value of outdoor sculpture and the need to care for it.
Arizona SOS! joins with 35 other states in the effort
sponsored by the National Institute for the Conservation of
Cultural Property and the National Museum of American
Art, Smithsonian Institution. (The program was active for
two years.)
Funded by the National Endowment for the Arts, the
Collaborative Initiatives program focuses on
collaborative artistic projects that help organizations reach
new communities. The Commission gives priority to
projects that show a sincere sharing of talents and specific
efforts to understand different cultures. (This program was
active for one year).
In a collaborative project between the Arts Commission,
the Arizona Department of Education and the fine arts
colleges of the three state universities. the Arizona Arts
Education Research Institute (AAERI) funds research
studies which examine programs in the arts to determine
their impact on learning.
1993
The Border Arts project supports arts programs reflective
of the cultural heritage of the people in the border counties
of Yuma, Santa Cruz and Cochise. (The program is active
for two years.)
Supported through the Western States Arts Federation,
Tumblewords: Writers Rolling Around the West places
Arizona poets and writers in underserved communities for
outreach activities and public community readings. (This
program is active for 10 years.)
1994
Arts Education Through Distance Learning allows two
teams to conduct distance learning experiments using
communications technology with K-12 arts curricula. The
University of Arizona designs music and visual art lessons;
Arizona State University focuses on dance and drama.
(This program is active for three years.)
1996
The Arizona Legislature and Governor Fife Symington
create the Arizona Arts Endowment Fund (Arizona
ArtShare), a public-private partnership. This long-term
funding mechanism will, through interest income from
permanent endowment funds, support the stabilization of
Arizona arts organizations, and arts education.
1997
The State Board of Education adopts Arts Standards with
the expectation that students demonstrate competency in
music, visual art, dance and theater by the eighth grade
and proficiency in one art form by graduation. The
Commission works with the Department of Education and
the Arizona Alliance for Arts Education developing
strategies to help local schools make the arts an integral
part of the curriculum.
1998
The Arizona Commission on the Arts entered into a unique
collaboration called Arizona ArtsPlace with the Phoenix
Arts Commission, Business Volunteers for the Arts, the
Tucson-Pima Arts Council, Arizona State University and
the Western States Arts Federation. This collaboration
provides grants, technical assistance, computer hardware
and software and training to Arizona’s non-profit arts
organizations to develop and maximize their online
capabilities. (This program continues for six years.)
ArtistsRegister.com/Arizona is an online register of
Arizona’s visual artists which eliminates multiple slide
submissions for artists and provides easy-to-access
notices of public art projects and competitions. The online
register connects people interested in visual arts with
Arizona artists and their work. ArtistsRegister.com/Arizona
is a collaborative project with the Chandler Arts
Commission, City of Glendale, City of Yuma, Greater Oro
Valley Arts Council, Phoenix Arts Commission, Scottsdale
Cultural Council, Tempe Cultural Services, Tucson/Pima
Arts Council and the Western States Arts Federation. The
program has added a performing arts register and a literary
arts register as well.
1999
A federally funded program, School -To-Work brings
businesses and schools together to create meaningful work
experiences for students. The Arizona Commission on the
Arts became the fiscal agent for a unique arts and
humanities partnership that introduces students to the wide
variety of careers available in the arts. (The program is
active for three years.)
ARTability: Accessing Arizona’s Arts is a consortium of
30-plus organizations which combine resources in order to
hire a full-time Accessibility Coordinator. This Coordinator
provides technical advice to arts and cultural organizations
wishing to develop accessible programs and spaces;
distributes information about accessible arts programs and
facilities to the disability community; organizes, promotes
and coordinates Audio Description, American Sign
Language interpretation and other accessibility services.
ARTability also promotes Universal Design in architecture,
provides information on accessibility-related issues and
promotes community awareness of disability-related
issues.
The Commission’s Artist Teacher Institutes support two
or three-day professional development institutes for
teachers and administrators on-site in rural school districts
throughout Arizona. Presented by Arts Commission staff
and Arizona teaching artists, the Institutes help teachers in
rural schools learn skills to teach using the arts and
implement the Arizona arts standards.
2000
In a public and private partnership with the Arizona
Community Foundation, the Arizona Humanities Council
and the Arizona Department of Commerce, the Arts and
Culture Build Communities supports planning and
implementation of projects with ethnic or rural arts/cultural
or heritage organizations that support a community’s
cultural resources through economic and tourism
development strategies and supported by interest income
from private contributions to Arizona ArtShare. The
program is now called The Arts Link to Tourism and the
Economy.
2001
The agency participates in a nine-month Sunset Audit by
the Auditor General. Legislation is introduced and passes
in the 2002 session, reauthorizing the agency for 10 more
years.
2002
The Wallace-Reader’s Digest Funds (now The Wallace
Foundation) selects Arizona as one of 13 states to
participate in a national research project, exploring new
strategies in building public participation in the arts. The
Commission designs the Understanding Participation
project (UP) as a learning opportunity between the state
arts agency, consultants in the areas of arts participation,
and Arizona’s arts organizations, communities and artists.
The project brings together national research and technical
assistance combined with local research and experiments
to result in broadening, deepening and diversifying
participation in the arts.
2003
The Arts Commission closed its longest running program
this year. The Traveling Exhibitions Program brought
artwork to a variety of locations around the state, offering a
number of easy-to-order gallery exhibitions. Over time the
agency noted the decline in usage as other options
became available. Arts organizations who used to exhibit
Traveling Exhibitions began to curate their own exhibitions
and also obtain art work from other organizations. The
Traveling Exhibition was an extraordinarily successful
program and we celebrate its success. The agency played
a leadership role with the creation of Alliance for
Audience/Showup.com. This new Valley-wide
organization will activate new audiences and provide
instant online information about arts and culture. Working
with a graphic artist, the agency created a deck of playing
cards to promote the arts in the state. The deck of cards,
titled 52 Reasons, contained information about Arizona
arts organizations and artists demonstrating the public
value of the state’s investment. The national printer
donated the printing of the project and the cards were
distributed at the annual Governor's Arts Awards
ceremony.
National and Regional Affiliations
The Arizona Commission on the Arts participates in the
programs of the Western States Arts Federation
(WESTAF) which works to promote the promotion of the
arts in and of the western United States, including online
registers for visual, performing and literary artists.
The Arizona Commission on the Arts is also a member of
the National Assembly of State Arts Agencies,
Americans for the Arts and the Association of
American Cultures.
Historical Summary
In its first year of existence, the Commission sponsored 32
events, serving a small arts constituency. Since that time
the migration to the Southwest has multiplied the
population of Arizona many fold, increasing the demand for
the arts. Spread across the state are hundreds of arts and
community organizations, dedicated to making their
communities better places in which to live, work and play.
Organizations receiving Commission support reach or
touch more than six million people annually. The
commitment to continued cultural development in Arizona
is a challenge shared by arts organizations, artists,
audiences and the Arizona Commission on the Arts.
Program Areas
What does the Commission do?
The Commission is known as a funder but also as an
essential resource for information, research and
consultation about the arts industry. The Commission is
also respected as a leader in the national and Arizona arts
community.
Information and Referral
The Commission offers staff and consultant resources with
expertise in arts disciplines and community development
provide referrals and information to help artists and arts
organizations connect most effectively with their
communities. Areas of expertise include organization
development, community participation building, grants
preparation, marketing, fundraising and board
development.
The Commission houses a specialized non-circulating
library, the Arts Resource Center, with current
publications on copyright, taxes, legal issues, health
hazards in the arts, arts participation, fundraising,
management, marketing, publicity, board development and
facility planning.
The Commission also has an extensive website so that
constituents can access information from anywhere in the
state at any time.
Research
The Commission receives and maintains a wide array of
current information, data and materials in arts, arts
education and related areas. The Commission can guide
people to these resources through our website and
publications available in our Arts Resource Center or to
research at other service organizations and public
agencies. The Commission also tracks research and
statistics on a broad range of areas from cultural tourism to
economic impact studies of the arts to the influence of arts
education on student learning.
The Understanding Participation project (UP), Arizona's
partnership with The Wallace Foundation) provides
additional research and learning about what motivates
people to participate in the arts along with strategies to put
this knowledge into action. As well, we are learning to
articulate and demonstrate the public value of the arts and
the state arts agency.
Professional/Staff Assistance
Commission program staff have expertise and experience
in arts administration, arts disciplines and as facilitators.
Constituents are encouraged to speak with staff about
potential projects; discuss organizational or career
development issues; ways in which they would like to
connect to others in their communities or artforms; or to
facilitate staff and board discussions.
The Commission’s Peer Consultant Roster offers
consultants with experience in board development,
marketing, fundraising, cultural tourism, community cultural
inventories, arts participation research projects,
accessibility and other specialized areas. The Commission
makes Consultant Services Grants available to arts
organizations to assist with the costs of one-day
consultancies. Each consultancy leave organizations with
ideas and tools to move forward on their own.
Convening
The Commission has become a catalyst and facilitator in
bringing together members of the arts community around
important issues.
Each year the Commission sponsors the annual
Southwest Arts Conference (SWAC) to discuss current
topics in the arts. More than 400 arts workers from around
the state attend to hear national speakers and panels.
Additionally the staff convenes 10 to 15 community
workshops each year. By bringing together groups of
people, the staff can learn about issues in specific
disciplines (music, dance, theatre, visual arts, literature) or
programs such as arts education, presenting and others.
The Commission has also been instrumental in the creation
of the Alliance for Audience, a new collaboration between
arts groups, that works to make ticket purchasing easier for
consumers and create an online arts calendar that list
upcoming events.
In addition to their many other duties, Commission staff
serve on panels, provide technical assistance, and attend
many convenings around the state such as the Governor’s
Conference on Tourism, Arizona Department of Education,
the Department of Commerce’s Rural Economic
Development Conference, Arizona Department of
Transportation T-21 Committee and the Arizona Museum
Conference. The Commission also works with the Main
Street programs to discuss how design and programmatic
issues in the arts that affect the economic viability of rural
areas.
Technology
For six years. the Commission has been a partner with the
Phoenix Arts Commission and others in Arizona
ArtsPlace. This grant program helps Arizona arts
organizations maximize their online capabilities. This
program is currently on hiatus. In its place, the
Commission’s website contains information on technology
resources for arts and nonprofit organizations. Agency
plans for 2005 include the launch of EGOR (Electronic
Grant Online Resource) for electronic submission of
organization and school grants.
Funding
Funding offers the State of Arizona direct methods to
improve the quality and depth of programs available to the
people of Arizona.
Organizations
The Arts Commission offers General Operating Support
grants to not-for-profit arts organizations to provide the
stability and infrastructure. This support allows
organizations of all sizes to develop and present high
quality and effective programs for the public. This support
is also available for local arts agencies and tribal
museums.
The Commission also awards Project grants in the
disciplines of design and public art, literature, music,
dance, multidisciplinary, theatre and visual and media arts.
Project grants strengthen the quality of artistic resources
available to communities. These art forms may be
produced by discipline companies or provided to their
communities by presenting organizations or festivals.
Other special initiatives include Meet the Composer and
Dance on Tour, and working with the Arizona Department
of Transportation to include enhancement projects within
transportation design (T-21).
Arts Education Project grants connect practicing artists
in all disciplines with schools, after-school programs,
libraries, museums and other community settings. These
programs reinforce the value of the arts as an essential
part of basic education, support the implementation of the
Arizona Arts Standards and provide students and teachers
opportunities to explore the arts and participate in hands-on
creative experiences with artists.
Special initiatives include the Anti-Drug A.P.P.L.E. Corps,
a partnership between artists, private enterprise,
prosecutors, law enforcement and educators. This program
places artists in after-school programs to help youth, family
and community reject drugs with support from the Maricopa
County Attorney's Office.
Artist Teacher Institutes introduce teachers from all
grade levels in two-three day seminars to the arts, the arts
standards and ways to utilize the standards in their
teaching practice. The Arizona Arts Education Research
Institute supports research in arts education in partnership
among the Commission, the Arizona Department of
Education and the fine arts colleges of the three
universities.
Individual Artists
Artist Projects encourage artists to pursue research and
development and to extend their mastery of their art forms.
The online Arizona Arts Roster compiles a listing of juried
artists in many disciplines who are interested and available
to work in schools and communities.
Artists with official invitations to perform and present their
work from governments outside of the United States may
be selected for the International Arts Exchange.
Artists can also apply for Professional Development
awards to attend conferences and learning opportunities in
order to further their professional artistic and management
development.
With the increasing popularity of the internet, the
Commission has helped create three programs that
connect artists to audiences via this new technology.
ArtistsRegister.com is a non-juried listing for visual
artists; WritersRegister.com for writers and
PerformingArtistsRegister.com for performing artists.
The three online registers are managed by the Western
States Arts Federation. The ArtistsRegister.com/Arizona is
supported in Arizona with other partners including the
Phoenix Arts Commission, Tucson/Pima Arts Council,
Mesa Arts Center, Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary
Art, Glendale Arts Council, Chandler Cultural Foundation.
To connect people with disabilities with the arts, the
Commission is part of a consortium of 40 organizations
called ARTability.
In-depth information on all these topics can be found on the
website at www.ArizonaArts.org.
Financial Assistance
Awarded by the Commission (alphabetical by county and city)
This section details each individual grant made to organizations and individuals in FY04. Organized alphabetically by county,
and then by municipality within the county, this lists each grantee and the title of the project or grant type, and the sources of
funds for the grant.
How Were These Grants Selected?
All grants are awarded through a process in which the organization or individual applies for support. If they meet eligibility
requirements, their application is reviewed through the applicable process and criteria. Applicants must document and certify the
use of the funds before payment is made, and they report on the project after completion.
Where Does the Money Come From?
Federal funds are provided through Congressional appropriations to the National Endowment for the Arts; Arizona receives
funds through a Partnership Agreement (a portion is calculated by formula and a portion through a competitive review process)
and Challenge America (designed to support programs in underserved areas).
State funds are appropriated by the Arizona State Legislature. ATF denotes the Arts Trust Fund; these grants are specifically
designated for general operating support for arts organizations from a portion of the annual filing of businesses with the
Corporation Commission, interest income from the state portion of Arizona ArtShare, the sate’s arts endowment housed in the
State Treasury and private funds at the Arizona Community Foundation. Other funds come from interest generated by Arizona
ArtShare, the state arts endowment fund; RICO funds through the Maricopa County Attorney's Office to support Anti-Drug
A.P.P.L.E. Corps projects; Meet the Composer, Inc.; and The Wallace Foundation.
