Summary:
The Downtown Arts District (DAD) provides a vital role in assisting the CRA in achieving its redevelopment plan goal of providing cultural entertainment opportunities and amenities within Downtown Orlando. DAD operates the City Arts Factory, in which it hosts hundreds of cultural events or live performances each year and numerous juried art shows and exhibits, operates Third Thursday events and mobile galleries, provides outreach to Downtown schools, and provides community arts projects such as Art In Odd Places and GuitarTown. For many years, the CRA has provided funding to DAD to assist DAD in conducting these activities and assisting the CRA in achieving its goals. DAD’s current agreement with the CRA will expire later in 2016. The attached agreement will provide funding to DAD through November 30, 2018, the end of its upcoming extension of its sublease for the City Arts Factory facility. The CRA will provide DAD with funding of $24,000 monthly during the term of the Agreement.
On April 27, 2016, the CRA Advisory Board recommended the CRA approve the Agreement with DAD, subject to review and approval of the City Attorney’s Office, and authorize the Chairman and Executive Director to execute such Agreement.
