Maine Arts Commission Julie A. Richard Executive Director Created in 1965 by the Maine legislature, the Maine Arts Commission provides services and allocates state and federal funding to support the state’s arts, creative, and cultural sector for the benefit of Maine’s citizens, visitors, and the economies of communities across the state. It supports programs and partnerships that: • Promote stronger and wider delivery of services within the arts and culture communities of Maine; • Recognize the potential for advancing the arts through technology, in education, and in state and local economies; • Preserve and strengthen Maine’s traditional arts; • Focus on opportunities for all of Maine’s citizens, native peoples, and especially underserved populations and persons with disabilities to have meaningful encounters with art, artists, and art-making; and • Increase local capacity for arts programs, thus energizing and broadening support for arts and culture in Maine. In supporting these activities and pursuing its mission, the Maine Arts Commission looks for evidence of public benefit and efficient use of funds and other resources. Above all, the Maine Arts Commission strives to be flexible and adaptable, responding to the sector’s needs and learning from opportunities and challenges, in order to increase the positive impact arts and culture has on Maine’s vitality, livability, and prosperity. Over the past two years, the Maine Arts Commission has mobilized the State’s arts and culture sector to develop a new five year Cultural Plan – Fortifying Maine’s Culture and Creativity. Supported by data gathered from every zip code in the State with over 6,500 participants, the Commission developed the following five priorities: Priority 1. Leverage Investment to Strengthen and Better Capitalize the Arts, Creative, and Cultural Sector • Pursue fund development strategies difficult for artists and organizations to pursue on their own. • Continue professional development opportunities for artists and arts workers. • Continue to promote community development through the arts, creativity and culture. Priority 2. Increase Awareness • Create Maine Arts brand awareness. • Encourage research and widely disseminate findings to increase the understanding of arts, creative, and cultural sector impacts and value. • Increase arts, creative, and cultural sector recognition 38 and celebrate success. • Use Maine’s Bicentennial in 2020 as a marker in time when arts, creative, and cultural sector awareness will be greater than ever before. Priority 3. Foster Arts Education and Lifelong Learning • Strengthen PK-12 arts education for all students. • Support collaboration between PK-12 arts education and community cultural organizations. • Grow and expand Maine Arts Commission’s PK-12 Arts Education efforts. • Continue working with the Department of Education to strengthen PK-12 arts education. • Collaborate with higher education institutions. • Fortify Maine Arts Commission’s lifelong learning efforts. Priority 4. Build Arts & Tourism Synergy • Build a stronger bridge with the Office of Tourism and the Maine Tourism Association. • Help strengthen cultural sector capacity to better utilize technology for marketing and PR. • Create and disseminate cultural tourism best practices and guidelines. Priority 5. Strengthen Maine Arts Commission’s capacity and stewardship • Ensure the Maine Arts Commission’s capacity remains commensurate with planned growth. • Explore the feasibility of a 501(c)(3) arm and the proposed name, ArtsEngageME. • Build a statewide cultural sector network. • Keep this Cultural Plan current. The Maine Arts Commission is already well on its way to achieving some of these priorities. The legislation to create ArtsEngageME was passed by the Legislature during this past Legislative session. The Commission has achieved a 95% response rate of schools surveyed through our Arts Education Census. And, we are busy planning for the next Maine International Conference on the Arts to be held October 6 & 7 in Lewiston. The Maine Arts Commission would like to congratulate the Snow Pond Center for the Arts and the New England Music Camp on another fine season. And the Commission looks forward to the launch of the Snow Pond Arts Academy. For more information about the Maine Arts Commission and its programs, please visit www.mainearts.com.
