Arts council reports on RTMP-funded programs and new displays
Summary
Toni Watsonberg reported the Oak Ridge Council for Art & Culture used $1,300 in RTMP funds to buy display equipment, create a website/QR code, hold a plein‑air 'paint out' (delayed by smoke), run a youth art show and start a people's‑choice acknowledgement program.
Toni Watsonberg told the council that the Oak Ridge Council for Art & Culture (OCAC) used $1,300 in RTMP funds to support several local arts activities and infrastructure.
Watsonberg said the funds bought display equipment that improved gallery presentation along Highway 58, supported a website and QR code for outreach, enabled awards for a plein‑air event (which was rescheduled because of smoke), and underwrote a successful youth art show and a new people's‑choice acknowledgement. "We were able to purchase equipment that allows us to display all of the art," she said, and credited local business donations for supplementary support.
Councilors praised the outreach and encouraged OCAC to continue building partnerships that bring visitors and revenue to the area.
