Forty organizations were recommended and approved for funding, and the recipients will be announced at the inaugural <a href=\"https:\/\/myemail.constantcontact.com\/--Celebrate-With-Us--Orange-County-ACT-Awards.html?soid=1108538024875&amp;aid=fS8A11ba4Ok\">Orange County ACT (Arts, Culture and Tourism) Awards<\/a> on November 8, 2023 at the new Orange County Multicultural Center in Pine Hills.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis year\u2019s funded projects are estimated to have a cultural impact of $94.6 million with a projected attendance of nearly 1.8 million, of which about 460,000 would be tourists,\u201d asserted Terry Olson, administrator, <a href=\"http:\/\/orangecountyfl.net\/CultureParks\/ArtsCulture.aspx\">Orange County Arts &amp; Cultural Affairs<\/a>. \u201cThe return on investment in arts and culture is significant \u2014 $24 goes to the local economy for every dollar we invest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The program, which started in 2002, supports organizations with projects that bring visitors to Orange County. It is funded by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ocfl.net\/EconomicDevelopment\/TDTCitizenAdvisoryTaskForce\/FAQ.aspx#:~:text=Currently%2C%20the%20TDT%20levy%20for%20Orange%20County%20is,of%20any%20county%20in%20the%20state%20of%20Florida.\">Tourist Development Tax<\/a>, a 6 percent levy on hotel and other overnight stays. Orange County Arts &amp; Cultural Affairs contracts with <a href=\"https:\/\/unitedartscfl.org\/grants\/\">United Arts of Central Florida<\/a> to oversee the application process and administer the program.<\/p>\n<p>The grant approval process started in September 2023 with the Orange County Cultural Tourism Review Panel, then the <a href=\"http:\/\/orangecountyfl.net\/CultureParks\/AdvisoryCouncil.aspx\">Arts &amp; Cultural Affairs Advisory Council<\/a>, and finally the Board of County Commissioners. Evaluation criteria include Identity (innovation\/uniqueness, attention\/standing), Tourism (marketing, attendance), Quality (artistic excellence, feedback\/critical acclaim) and Implementation (outreach &amp; diversity, operational readiness, financial readiness, financial match).<\/p>\n<p>Of the roughly $4.16 million going to these organizations, nearly $163,000 is for the new Collaboration Supplement program, which was designed to assist emerging and minority-led organizations that might not qualify for a cultural-tourism grant on their own, but are teaming with an established organization on an event. The established organization is given the funding supplement to work with the less-established group.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFunding is vital for arts and cultural organizations,\u201d said Hayley Black, office coordinator, Orange County Arts &amp; Cultural Affairs. \u201cIt can be difficult for nonprofits to raise money, especially for those that aren\u2019t as established, so it\u2019s critical we help support them in any way we can.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Having a robust arts and culture sector also plays a significant role in boosting economic development. Businesses looking to relocate want their employees to enjoy where they live, so if the local arts scene is vibrant, it represents a strong selling point.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese organizations all want to offer arts and culture as a critical aspect of the community, and they all bring something unique to the table,\u201d said Olson. \u201cOrange County is making a significant investment in this area because we understand how important it is to not only competing economically, but also offering the best quality of life for our residents.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information, go to <a href=\"http:\/\/orangecountyfl.net\/CultureParks\/ArtsCulture.aspx\">Orange County Arts &amp; Culture Overview<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Grant Recipients:<\/strong><br \/>\nAlbin Polasek Museum &amp; Sculpture Gardens<br \/>\nArt &amp; History Museums of Maitland<br \/>\nAsian Cultural Association of Central Florida<br \/>\nAssociation to Preserve African-American Society, History &amp; Tradition<br \/>\nAssociation to Preserve the Eatonville Community<br \/>\nBach Festival Society of Winter Park<br \/>\nBlue Bamboo Center for the Arts<br \/>\nCaribbean American Passport Multicultural Initiative<br \/>\nCentral Florida Ballet<br \/>\nCentral Florida Community Arts<br \/>\nCentral Florida Vocal Arts<br \/>\nCreald\u00e9 School of Art<br \/>\nCreative City Project<br \/>\nDowntown Arts District<br \/>\nD.T.O.
