Art walks are proven to ignite a community and enrich them culturally. They give a platform of expression for local artist and connect them to local audiences. Very efficiently managed budget and a modest ask related to the impact of the program. It is suprising that more efforts have not been made to establish accessability, but they are promising to do in the future.

A great project to promote Downtown Jacksonville that has a long history of presenting local artists;

one segment of the grant specified 11 Art Walks and another segment specified 12 Art Walks; 

Increase Facebook to 13,500 - what is it now?

Objectives - not clear

Need to improve section on activities and not provide minutiae but overall activities such as Book up to 3 artists for each of the 11/12 Art Walks.

 

Love your parking partner!!!   TImeline - needs more detail and expand on the economic impact of Art Walk.

 

Good marketing which is robust; thanks for the data

In the Excellence section, I would like to see a description of the various artistic activities taking place during the First Wednesday Art Walk.

Very strong partnerships.

The organization is in a solid fiscal condition - amazing to learn that it maintains $600,000 in cash reserves.

The proposal budget seems to be low. Why are you only requesting $25,000?

Why is the travel budget increasing so much from current ($11,085) - which was already higher than previous year ($7,776) to "Next Fiscal Year" $30,180? What is this travel and for whom?

What caused the $60,000 drop in revenue from Previous Fiscal Year to Current?

Private Support: Other - where do you expect this extra support to come from?
