RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2013-147 accepting a cash donation of $20,000 from the
Carlsbad Friends of the Arts and an in-kind donation of services totaling $6,234 from Modern
Postcard, both in support ofthe 2013 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 2013 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 ofthe 2013 TGIF Jazz announcement card at no charge and 8,000 copies
of the 2013 TGIF Jazz Souvenir Program at cost, for a total in-kind donation valued at $6,234.
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.
