The potential relationship to fund individual artists in partnership with ASC offers a unique opportunity to inform the long-term potential for boosting arts funding in the region.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bizjournals.com\/charlotte\/news\/2022\/01\/12\/new-arts-board-weighs-spending-decisions.html\">Read here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- \/.mccoppin --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Submitted by Nadia Elokdah on January 21, 2022 &#8220;Last year, Charlotte city government, business executives, and The Foundation For The Carolinas developed a plan aimed at boosting arts funding,&#8221; reported Erik Spanberg in the Charlotte Business Journal. &#8220;It included the addition of an arts and culture officer \u2014 Priya Sircar, hired last summer \u2014 and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_vp_format_video_url":"","_vp_image_focal_point":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11815","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-call-for-artists"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.0 -
