What this means
The Cultural Council discussed funding and event planning that affect local arts and public events. Because rollover COVID funds are nearly exhausted, the council expects a $10,000 shortfall next year and will try to get grants and additional city support for Music in the Park — this may change the scale or funding source for programs residents attend. Several public art installations have target months for installation, and the council canceled the Fall Fest car show because it conflicts with Adams City homecoming. Board leadership elections will happen at an October retreat.
