Submission Details
Presenting Organization: Austin
Submission Title: Austin Equitable Arts Funding
Submission Overview: The City of Austin has funded a vibrant and recognized community of arts and culture organizations since 1981 through a dedicated portion of Hotel Occupancy Tax. As the city boomed and attracted more residents and tourists, the amount of cultural funding and cultural contractors also grew; however, systemic inequities in the funding model also intensified. Almost 40 years later, the City and its cultural ecosystem are re-imagining what an equitable cultural ecosystem can and should be. The Economic Development Department’s Cultural Funding Review is necessary to correct the historical and structural disparities that have led to inequitable funding awards for decades. But the question is…HOW does this transformation happen?
