The 2003-04 Executive Budget proposes the establishment of the New York Institute for Cultural Education to administer a variety of statewide cultural education programs and important cultural institutions. Working together, these agencies expand access to the performing and fine arts, preserve the State’s cultural resources and promote greater public awareness of New York’s rich cultural heritage. ORGANIZATION AND STAFFING The Council on the Arts is headed by a Chair and a Vice Chair and consists of 20 members nominated for 5-year terms by the Governor with confirmation by the Senate. The Council’s staff, headed by an Executive Director, is organized into an Administrative Division and a Program Division, both located in New York City. The Council has expertise in several major artistic disciplines (including dance, theater and music) and provides advisory services and financial assistance to New York’s arts community. During 2003-04, the Council on the Arts will have a workforce of 52 for the review, processing and administration of arts grants and loans to nonprofit organizations.

    Maple Hill Junior Paw Print Issue 4 June 2021 Peter Gannon, President and CEO of the United Way of the Greater Capital Region, takes a selfie with students during the kick-off of the two-day visit of the Covid Mural, Still Life with Gratitude, by Rachel Baxter and Poem, “What We Have Now,” by D. Colin, on May 13 and 14, 2021. Here is a sampling of Covid Mural and Poem writings from students. An acrostic poem by Cain Stone, grade 7 Many flowers Using many meanings. Remembrance And Life with gratitude. A tricube poem by Nava Schuerholz, grade 7 Lilacs and forget-me- nots can help people to remember those who have suffered during the pandemic. A reflection from the Mural’s Perspective by Gabe Price, grade 7 I arrived at Maple Hill High School on a sunny day. I was set up outside in their outside classroom. I was lonely until the children came to visit. The first class came down with older students. They loved looking at me and even put round stickers on me.I heard the kids talking and most kids thought I was interesting. I think I am important because I represent a disease that is going around. I support all that were affected. I love my moons which represent time. I am happy we are now getting closer to everyone not needing a mask. I have never seen anyone without a mask ! I love that I am a collection of bright flowers. One of the stickers was from a seventh grade boy who made a picture of a virus and crossed it out.
