Library & Cultural Arts ACCEPTANCE OF DONATION AND IN-KIND SERVICES IN SUPPORT OF 2012 TGIF JAZZ IN THE PARKS CITY MGR. \jy-^ Library & Cultural Arts CONCERT SERIES RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution No. 2012-137 accepting a cash donation of $20,000 from the Carlsbad Friends of the Arts and an in-kind donation of services totaling $14,500 from Modern Postcard, both in support of the 2012 TGIF Jazz in the Parks summer concert series. ITEM EXPLANATION: The Carlsbad Friends of the Arts, a non-profit, community-based organization dedicated to supporting the programs and activities of the City of Carlsbad's Cultural Arts Office, has generously offered to donate $20,000 to be used by the City for the 2012 TGIF Jazz in the Parks concert series. The Friends raise their funds through the Opportunity Drawings conducted at the TGIF Jazz concerts and through their membership program. The donation is intended to be used for TGIF Jazz operational services such as shuttle buses, porta-toilets, truck rentals, trash and recycling services, and supplies at the concerts. Modern Postcard, a nationally renowned company based here in Carlsbad, has generously printed 3,000 copies of the 2012 TGIF Jazz announcement card and 10,000 copies of the 2012 TGIF Jazz Souvenir Program, for an in-kind donation valued at $14,500. The announcement cards provide an important method for informing the community about the upcoming concert schedule, and the souvenir program, which is offered free at each concert and at various community locations, offers expanded information about the concerts, the bands and the Cultural Arts Office. Most importantly, the souvenir program, through its sale of advertising space, is a major vehicle used by the Cultural Arts Office to raise funds which help support the TGIF Jazz concert series. FISCAL IMPACT: The donation from the Carlsbad Friends of the Arts will provide partial funding for the TGIF Jazz in the Parks concert series, which is regularly funded, in part, by donations. The in-kind services provided by Modern Postcard offset significant TGIF Jazz expenses and ensure the efficient use of General Fund resources in providing this summer concert series for the community.
