grants to 52 organizations to support local performing, visual and literary arts
organizations. TPAC also oversees the public art programs for the city, county

Join us on

FUNDING INITIATIVE FOR NATURE, ARTS, CULTURE, AND HERITAGE ORGANIZATIONS.
Meet Friday Nov 6th 10:00
am - 12:00 noon at the ....Tucson.... Symphony Center ....2175 North Sixth
Avenue..... Current economic conditions have made it
clear that ....Arizona....'s arts and culture community needs a
source of public funding that is stable and secure. A team of advocates,
including representatives of arts and culture organizations of all sizes from
throughout the State, has been working to create a funding initiative to be
placed on the ....Arizona.... general election ballot in November
2010. If Successful, This Funding Stream
Would Generate Approximately $100 Million Annually, Which Would Be Dispersed By
The ..Arizona.. Commission On The Arts To All
Qualified Nature, Arts, Culture, And Heritage Organizations In ....Arizona.....
NACHOS (the executive directors of ..Tucson..'s Nature, Arts, Culture, & Heritage
Organizations) and TPAC are co-sponsoring a meeting to discuss this initiative,
what success will mean to our arts and culture community (and the State of
....Arizona....), and
what we need to do collectively to ensure it is approved by voters in November
2010. As a critical supporter of Arts and
Culture, we need your input and presence at this meeting. We
encourage you to bring other influential and interested parties. Please RSVP by November 5th to Martha
Martell at mmartell@tucsonsymphony.org....
On behalf of NACHOS and TPAC, we
look forward to sharing the details of this exciting, TRANSFORMATIVE, initiative
for the good of the entire State of ....Arizona.........

Meet Friday Nov 6th 10:00
am - 12:00 noon at the ....Tucson.... Symphony Center ....2175 North Sixth

throughout the State, has been working to create a funding initiative to be
placed on the ....Arizona.... general election ballot in November
2010. If Successful, This Funding Stream
Would Generate Approximately $100 Million Annually, Which Would Be Dispersed By
The ..Arizona.. Commission On The Arts To All
Qualified Nature, Arts, Culture, And Heritage Organizations In ....Arizona.....
NACHOS (the executive directors of ..Tucson..'s Nature, Arts, Culture, & Heritage
Organizations) and TPAC are co-sponsoring a meeting to discuss this initiative,
what success will mean to our arts and culture community (and the State of
....Arizona....), and
what we need to do collectively to ensure it is approved by voters in November
2010. As a critical supporter of Arts and
Culture, we need your input and presence at this meeting. We
encourage you to bring other influential and interested parties. Please RSVP by November 5th to Martha
Martell at mmartell@tucsonsymphony.org....
On behalf of NACHOS and TPAC, we

TPAC oversees a public art collection of more than 200
pieces. “We’re moving through an exciting time in ..Tucson..

generate job opportunities for artists who enhance our communal experience with
art,” says Mary Ellen Wooten, Public Art Program Manager. TPAC organizes the

artwork in city and county facilities, transportation projects, neighborhood
centers and parks. A public art committee of twenty-one members oversees the
