RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 9qdla accepting a donation from the Aviara Community Fund for the Art
Gallery at the Carlsbad Library.
ITEM EXPLANATION
The Aviara Community Fund is donating $10,000 to the City of Carlsbad Arts Office for the
Carlsbad Art Gallery at the new Library which is dedicated to featuring quality local and national
exhibitions of art and culture for public enjoyment and education. This money was raised at the
annual Holiday Festival of Trees held at the Four Seasons Resort Aviara in December 1998. Many
volunteers, chaired by Pamela Whitcomb and Patricia Burruss, worked very hard to raise these
funds for three community projects of which the Art Gallery was one. These funds will be used to
supplement funding for the operation, exhibitions, and educational programming at the Gallery.
The Aviara Community Fund, a non-profit public fund, was established in 1996. Through volunteer
and financial support from the community, the Aviara Community Fund contributes its energy and
resources to build a better future for residents in Carlsbad. Organized under the San Diego
Foundation, the Aviara Community Fund receives donations through fund-raising efforts and
charitable contributions and offers gifts throughout the Carlsbad community to benefit educational,
cultural and charitable organizations and programs designed to enhance the quality of life of its
residents.
With the donation of $10,000, the Aviara Community Fund will become a Founders Club member of
the Gallery and will have its name on the donor wall in the Gallery and on the donor wall in the entry
of the Library.
FISCAL IMPACT
The $10,000 donation will be deposited and appropriated into account no. 14740207550.
