Leesburg arts board approves $500 contribution to Crossroads, agrees to administer call-to-artists
Summary
The board voted to donate $500 to Crossroads to support a call-to-artists and agreed to administer Crossroads' annual T-shirt contest and call-to-artists outreach.
The Leesburg Cultural Arts Board voted to contribute $500 from its COBRA budget to Crossroads and to administer Crossroads' annual call-to-artists and T-shirt contest, the board decided during its Feb. 5 meeting.
Board members described the arrangement as a partnership: COBRA will provide promotional and minimal financial support while Crossroads will handle voting and event execution. The board approved a $500 allocation to help Crossroads with advertising and printing costs and then voted to take on administrative duties for the organization's call-to-artists and T-shirt contest.
A board member said the board plans to reuse the process and materials from last year and will circulate the call-to-artists to the board email list for further distribution. No changes to the terms of Crossroads' contest procedures were recorded in the meeting minutes. The motions passed by voice vote.
Board members directed staff to circulate the call-to-artists materials to the board's email chain and to coordinate with Crossroads on timelines for March distribution and subsequent event scheduling.
