ARTS TITLE: ACCEPTANCE OF DONATION DEPT. HD. 44P CITY ATTY. 4£Z- CITY MGR «J^P RECOMMENDED ACTION: City Council Adopt Resolution No. 2006-077 accepting a donation from Mrs. Teresa M. Cannon in the amount of $5,000. ITEM EXPLANATION: Mrs. Teresa M. Cannon has generously donated funds to be used for the "Three Part Art" education program presented at the William D. Cannon Art Gallery. Three-Part-Art, an educational outreach program, offers third and fourth-graders from Carlsbad the experience of interacting with and learning from original works of art in a museum setting. The multi-pronged program includes (1) a curriculum guide sent to participating teachers to help them prepare their classes for a visit to the Cannon Art Gallery; (2) a tour of the Gallery exhibition with an artist/educator; and (3) a related hands-on art activity, led by another artist/educator. The children learn some of the basics of the art vocabulary and most important, they learn that museums and galleries can be welcoming places to see and experience new and exciting ideas. FISCAL IMPACT: The annual cost for the Three-Part-Art programs the City currently offers to Carlsbad schoolchildren is approximately $33,000. The Arts Office requests Council to accept this $5,000 donation from Mrs. Teresa M. Cannon.
