Vivian, a staff member, asked committee members to share events where the board should have a presence and described recent communications work: a Creative Copy newsletter, a purple-featured box on the board website for signup links, and updated visuals for social media. She also invited nominations for organizations to feature in the new Spotlighting Wisconsin series.

A board member reported a partnership with Door County Medical Center and Peninsula Players for a pilot social prescription program and said the first referred attendee was scheduled to begin the week after the meeting. The committee discussed the pilot as an example of arts-health collaboration and agreed to watch for results. Vivian said staff will bring materials (including one-pagers and promotional boxes) to the state fair on July 31 and encouraged members to meet staff there.

Members also noted numerous local events and art fairs around the state where board visibility supports storytelling and constituent outreach. Staff asked members to share events and to contact the committee about opportunities for in-person or virtual participation. No formal action was taken during this agenda item.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","ERC Monthly Meeting | July 2025 | Wisconsin Arts Board","oneSentenceSummary","Committee members heard updates on outreach efforts including a pilot social prescription partnership in Door County, a new Spotlighting Wisconsin social series, a refreshed newsletter and plans for a state fair presence on July 31.","taxTitle","Wisconsin Arts Board, State Agencies, Executive, Wisconsin","taxId",29155,"location","Wisconsin","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6172894,"Arts board to launch public data visualization; Power BI training under way",114,1927000,2041000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5385082-98d226a3254688ab80784fafc7ed3b3c&start=1927&end=2041","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5385082-98d226a3254688ab80784fafc7ed3b3c/thumbnail_1927000.jpg","/articles/6172894/Wisconsin/Arts-board-to-launch-public-data-visualization-Power-BI-training-under-way","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6172894-3650b387b5a90d4037f6f3059bbb4614/orig.mp4?Expires=1773616503&Signature=NpBNJ-CFQV~g6YKJfpJPMWGceOFm4f3l8~fBzWBoV3PhCAaa7ZxRbj-a~bRzWYvSuqLq9Q3y4lmoIzYZWqL~sFukl0YqdqbRcp~xS2x8VPZpMVyHkHBLVAmoIX0AVEVUp5-7lWjHK~noiUkqqDCYmO0V~DVam3466hwCHS5kp40IPTR7z26O0MzRArRBMvsCXjnxkO8Mq3xNGcvMDAtUQb91FV4heC4L8oE4HTbq4SPKweAEYfxcnC4X5U7rDkMrgZHKOwjZDCJItDGP~5~FpKVT9pAyABcjbo6EjxOGdNUkUTurN~rXAwDha9KQnPsU9g0hvU50pT4~Cq78vPG89A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","At its July meeting, the Wisconsin Arts Board External Relations Committee was told staff have acquired Power BI and are training to build a public-facing data visualization using the board's 2024 grant data and refreshed one-pagers.

Vivian, a staff member leading the work, announced: \"We did finally get Power BI just last week.\" She said she is completing Power BI training modules with support from Dale, Caitlin and Karen, and that Dale is funneling and preparing the underlying data. The goal is to have a working prototype for internal review before the September board meeting and a public-facing visualization thereafter.

Committee members discussed capacity and sustainability. Chella, the committee chair, and others asked who would be trained to maintain and update the tool so it is not dependent on a single staff member. Vivian said the immediate plan is for her to lead the build with support from Dale and other staff; Caitlin said she is willing to complete training as schedules allow. Members agreed the September meeting would be an appropriate time to review a prototype and provide a user-experience wish list for future refinements.

The committee framed the work as building on updated one-pagers (the last set dated 2017) and as an effort to make grant impact and data more accessible and user-friendly for advocates, local partners and the public. No formal action was taken; the item was discussed as a deliverable the committee can review in September.","The Wisconsin Arts Board's External Relations Committee heard that staff recently acquired Power BI and plan a public-facing data visualization prototype before the September board meeting, using 2024 data and updated one-pagers.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6172900,"Wisconsin Arts Board committee says grant awards await state guidance; contracts expected after numbers are finalized",643,808000,1451000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5385082-98d226a3254688ab80784fafc7ed3b3c&start=808&end=1451","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5385082-98d226a3254688ab80784fafc7ed3b3c/thumbnail_808000.jpg","/articles/6172900/Wisconsin/Wisconsin-Arts-Board-committee-says-grant-awards-await-state-guidance-contracts-expected-after-numbers-are-finalized","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6172900-090012ba93306df7aff0922b7f15f993/orig.mp4?Expires=1773616503&Signature=JXoErBR4AXhAvQE3tEi2IQpbPlmbDH4PEmnEEOnYzUbOR3LRgLEpdSjsOSh~fN0gPLWEp3t3L7RiFpxVc~1nrPlji8Md6cFJ-TCSlo9BMDJ1mDte0pEfRK~4OUlm1jZ1WiJcElQLuTFbX8BdmTpveWuHzAdj7lJjEiHnjd-tmROE5p3~x6VQjUnrkYx~bIa-JpHGyg-Sk8ahto5TdRVV3yhDYD1qcmAKtCSj001dunKrm33ticdwQpMh-nmMFJpUL~cYhOWmwmSid02xbp0kThrkZfI8CjibEatb9FopTJhcMXoC4twl7Z0cn1qsiJgFY0DUjzG7BcxRgJZgKSy6vQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","At a July meeting of the Wisconsin Arts Board External Relations Committee, staff told members that the board is still waiting for finalized budget figures and agency guidance before it can issue grant contracts and public messaging. Staff said the timing depends on directives from the state Department of Administration and the tourism agency and on federal figures.

Committee Chair Chella opened the discussion by reviewing survey findings and noting that staff had folded those takeaways into the budget requests submitted earlier this year. Vivian, a staff member, summarized outreach and said staff are sharing the survey summaries with partners such as Create Wisconsin for advocacy and resource connections.

Caitlin, a staff member, said staff have been working with leadership to prepare awards but cannot finalize contracts until budget numbers are confirmed. \"It's been a waiting game, and we're really ready to send out grant agreements and get those awards out, but nothing final final right now,\" she said. Staff indicated a goal to issue contracts by the end of this month if the outstanding figures are received. Caitlin also told the committee that \"George has been going back and forth with DOA's legal about the executive orders and what the implications of that on our funds and our programs, and we're still just ironing that out.\" The committee discussed the need to coordinate messaging with the Department of Administration (DOA) and the tourism agency before public communications about the budget's effects.

Members asked for clarity about what the adopted budget includes and how it will affect local organizations. Several committee members said constituents are asking what the budget means for local grants and operations; staff answered that interpretation depends on incoming guidance and final allocations. The group noted that the recently passed film incentives and the film office provision were considered separately and that staff are coordinating with the tourism agency to explain implications.

Staff committed to circulate the survey key takeaways and supporting documents to committee members and to post materials on the board's Google Drive for those with access. The committee agreed that the next full board meeting in September will be an important opportunity to provide a clear path once DOA and tourism directives and final numbers are available.

The meeting produced no formal motion or vote on budget allocations. The committee recorded discussion items, requests for staff follow-up on messaging and contracts, and a planned September update to the full board.","At a July meeting of the Wisconsin Arts Board External Relations Committee, staff said they are waiting for final budget figures and guidance from state agencies before issuing grant contracts; staff hopes to send agreements by the end of the month.","actionData","errors"]
