During 198Li-1985 our productions played to a total audience of over Fourteen Thousand (1 Li, 000). In keeping with our unique tradition, over sixty percent (60%) of the total viewing audience was comprised of children from throughout the area attending our four special school performances. This record is unparalleled here in the Inland Empire and is one of which we are very proud. Not only do our school performances provide the children an excellent exposure to the fine artsnthe productions are presented in their entirety with full orchestration and guest artists--but during the intermission break the children gain a behind-the-scenes look at the workings of a theater production. Launching this year's Tenth Anniversary celebration will be our annual presentation of the classic Nutcracker Ballet. a tradition here in the City of San Bernardino. In last year's request for funding, we stated our plans to bring major artists to the city for this gala celebration, In keeping with those plans, COMMUNITY ARTS PRODUCTIONS will be presenting this year Deborah Hadley and Wade Wallehl, principal dancers with the Pacific Northwest Ballet in Seattle, Washington, and Yvette DeMarco and Edward Toole with the former Los Angeles Ballet. In addition, we will feature the Inland Empire Symphony under the direction of Mr. Don Jaeger. As projected in our annual budget, we anticipate offsetting some of our expenses with funding from the City Fine Arts Commission, Inland Empire Cultural Foundation (CLASS), and the California Arts Council. This is our first year to apply to the California Arts Council, and realistically, our chances of receiving funding are slim. Due to cash flow problems, the Inland Empire Cultural Foundation (CLASS) is running two quarters behind in their funding to COMMUNITY ARTS PRODUCTIONS, but have stated they hope to get our funding "caught up" in ninety days. - - c ,..,,~- - ... "'. '..,,1 An additional funding need this year resulted from the musician's union's (Orange Belt Musicians Association Local #167] new requirement that COMMUNITY ARTS PRODUCTIONS make payment of $14.537.00 prior to November 1, 1985 in order to receive cosponsor benefits. This means that our prior practice of paying after the performance will no longer be possible; this severely impacts our immediate cash requirements. COMMUN ITY ARTS PRODUCTIONS is aggressively working on fundraisers in an effort to provide replacement of deteriorating supplies. We recently completed a rummage sale which raised over $ 1,500.00; our annual Founders Cocktail Party will be held in October; and a Monte Carlo Nite is scheduled in the spring. In addition we have initiated reserved seating for our public performances with ticket prices set at $7.00, $11.00, and $15.00, hoping to raise additional revenue, while still bringing the best possible production to the most people at the lowest possible prices. As a new commitment this year, COMMUNITY ARTS PRODUCTIONS established a Scholarship Fund. The purpose of this fund is to help young dancers in financial need, who are accepted or invited to attend National Company schools. This past summer, COMMUNITY ARTS PRODUCTIONS matched funds with four young dancers who were selected to attend the Pennsylvania Ballet. The impact of the national recognition this brings to our community can only be fully appreciated when one considers that these four young dancers from our area were among only seventy (70) selected from auditions held nationwide' COMMUN ITY ARTS PRODUCTIONS is confident the City Fine Arts Commission is aware that costs to organizations like ours are continually increasing: Orchestration, Theatre rental, Advertising, Printing. Union fees, Insurance, and more. We respectfully request funding from the City of San Bernardino Fine Arts Commission in the amount of Twenty Thousand Dollars 1$20,000.00) to offset these increasing costs. Though this figure may at first appear staggering, when viewed in relation to the number of people served each year by COMMUNITY ARTS PRODUCTIONS, it becomes - - (, ,,"'-" , '-' "'"'" " clear we are asking only for an approximate investment of $1.10 per person served by our organization. COMMUNITY ARTS PRODUCTIONS thanks the City of San Bernardino Fine Arts Commission for their past support and appreciates their consideration of this request.
