return signed agreement within this timeline may affect the current cycle award, or future application eligibility.
All agreements MUST be signed by the two (2) officers listed on the Statement of Information filed with the California Secretary of
State for your organization (or listed on the most recent board roster.) These are officers who are authorized to enter into legally
binding agreements on behalf of your organization (i.e., CEO, CFO, Treasurer, Secretary.)

Group A Group B
Chairman, Secretary,
President, or Assistant Secretary,

recent Statement of Information has not been filed.
Agreements for Emerging Artists, Individuals or Arts Organizations applying through a fiscal agent must be signed by two (2) officers

Previous Project Success:
If your organization has completed a similar project, please provide details of the project and why it was
successful.
We started Demos & Expression on January 4, 2023, and it has been very well received. Attendees have
expressed appreciation for the quality, interactions, and attention received by the instructors, the
engagement in conversation with their peers, and the learning of art in general, all while communicating the
understanding of art, and the education it brings to each attendee. Attendance has been via RSVP which has
allowed us to track interest and to date: Jan - Mar we are proud to report, we currently have an average of 31
to 60 participants per session. (That gauges our success). Previous year's programming received between 7 -
20 people in attendance, not on a regular basis. Demos & Expression appears to be a success, and the
comments on the quality, and enjoyment of open dialogue with the instructor, while learning new technique
has made it more interesting and beneficial to everyone involved. We hope to continue to grow this program
to be a signature program in the community for everyone in the arts.
Project Distinction:
What makes this project distinctive?
The dialogue of expression uses thought-provoking imagery, works on paper, canvas, and other mediums
done by the instructor while attending artists and/or audience members engage during a 2-hour process.
This technique is sometimes used to break or penetrate the boundaries of social, and economic, in order to
ignite conversations while sparking creativity from within. It outreaches to new, emerging, amateurs and
professional artists. There is something for all levels of art abilities, and everyone is encouraged to join us.
Project Goals:
What are the goals (outputs and/or outcomes) of the project? How will you measure your goals?
We have measured our goals by the uptrend in attendance from 7-10 people per class to 31-45 people per
class. Along with the survey of comments that report consistently the enjoyment of the program, they interact
with the instructors, and the diversification and quality of the program.
Target Population:
Who is your target population and why? How will you reach them?
Our outreach target has been the local community, and the communities surrounding Carlsbad, CA. We have
since experienced incoming attendees from San Diego County areas. We outreach through media, postings,
social media, printed flyers, word of mouth, handouts, and daily support by providing information through
the North Coastal Art Gallery monthly events and daily public attendance at our location in Carlsbad.
Project Partnerships:
If applicable, please provide names and brief descriptions of roles for any partners in this project. This would
include any organizations, artists or individuals involved in your project that are not employed or affiliated with the
applying organization.

challenge is to capture it quickly, as it doesn't wait for you."
