Arts & Science Council – Annual Report 1 2

A Message to Our Community For over 50 years, the Arts & Science Council has been a funder and chief advocate for Charlotte-Mecklenburg’s cultural community. Thanks to the generosity of donors like you, ASC has grown into a nationally ­recognized institution that shapes our community’s cultural and civic life. In times like these, it is important to remember that arts, science, history and Don Truslow (left) and Scott Provancher (right) heritage serve a critical need. They increase student achievement, economic development and act as a catalyst for community creativity and innovation. While the 2008–2009 fiscal year proved to be the most challenging in ASC’s 51 years of supporting the cultural sector, we remained committed to being a careful steward of public and private resources. The Annual Fund Drive, essential to support the sector, had a 37 percent shortfall. Yet, through strict fiscal management, including workforce reductions and restructuring the organization, ASC was able to sustain the cultural sector by investing over $13.9 million in arts, science, history and heritage. In addition to our financial support of the cultural sector, ASC: • Merged the educational non-profit ArtsTeach into the organization to better meet the needs of schoolchildren by providing expanded opportunities for curriculum- based cultural education programs – saving $200,000 in administrative costs that Sometimes, will be invested in our schools • Helped over 285,000 unique visitors engage in the cultural community through the return on an CharlotteCultureGuide.com • Completed eleven public artworks and partnered with the Charlotte Area Transit investment is System on a major exhibition of public artworks in Charlotte-Mecklenburg We also would like to recognize Lee Keesler, former ASC President & CEO who retired measured in mirth, at the end of the fiscal year, for five years of outstanding leadership to advance the cultural sector. not money. In the pages to follow, we hope you’ll enjoy reading about ASC’s investments and how arts and culture are critical now, more than ever.
