Regional Arts Partner Purpose & Benefits
The Regional Arts Partnership allows increased and improved delivery of services and grant funds on a regional level rather than previously from a central office.
The purpose of the Partnership is to provide a regional delivery system that is responsive to the needs of each region and provides more direct delivery of grants and services to communities; and to provide citizens a more direct role in the allocation of state resources to enhance the cultural development of their communities through the grantsmaking and needs assessment processes.
The IAC will work with its regional partners in this service delivery, and will also build additional programs to augment the regional delivery. The IAC will continue to assess opportunities for additional programs and services based upon needs assessment, effectiveness of similar services, and available resources.
