Commission preserves Art Drop and other community programming; CIFA quilt project seeks sponsorships
Summary
Staff recommended continuing Art Drop with a $1,500 allocation and described the CIFA quilt project as a sponsored tour piece; marketing funds for Chalk Walk were matched by Discover DeKalb, which staff hope to leverage again.
Commission liaison Tanisha Jones recommended keeping Art Drop funding at $1,500 and described the event as a small, community-led art exchange that grows annually.
Jones also summarized the CIFA (Southeastern Fiber Arts Alliance) quilt project, saying sponsors are being sought to produce a finished piece and a companion book for touring. She added that this year's marketing spend for Chalk Walk was largely matched by Discover DeKalb and that similar matches would allow the commission to expand outreach next year.
