The IACA advances its mission to build a strong, creative, and connected Illinois through the arts with resources and opportunities designed to nurture emerging ideas and to sustain artistic excellence. IACA programs, partnerships, and collaborative efforts achieve benefits of widespread and unique value to the people of Illinois. The IACA improves economic vitality and quality of life in Illinois by promoting an encouraging atmosphere for creative artists to live and work, and by providing catalytic support to build strong communities. Through investments in small businesses, cultural organizations, and individual artists, the IACA spurs economic development in communities throughout the state. A small professional staff, with in-depth knowledge of the arts, develops and administers IACA grant programs, provides technical assistance, and facilitates the responsible and impactful distribution of funds. The IACA interacts with Federal, State, and local governments and entities in national conversations on arts, culture, and education. RESOURCES Financial resources to support the IACA are provided by the Governor and General Assembly of Illinois. The IACA receives Federal support from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) through a Partnership Agreement to carry out the cultural priorities established by its residents. The IACA began FY2015 with a General Revenue Fund (GRF) appropriation equal to the previous fiscal year. In January 2015, all state agencies were ordered to cease spending and fund balances were swept; the IACA experienced a 20% reduction. In Fiscal Year 2016 the IACA did not receive a GRF appropriation; only Federal funds from the NEA were appropriated and expended. FY State (GRF) Reduction Federal (NEA) Total Revenue 2015 $10,109,300 ($2,136,731) $837,500 $8,810,069 2016 $0 $851,900 $851,900 RESULTS The significant drop in resources in this biennium has presented many challenges. The quality of education suffered as schools had fewer arts learning opportunities. Communities, particularly those with negative economic conditions and geographic isolation, had decreased access to the arts. Cultural organizations had job losses, canceled public arts programming, and some permanently closed. Keeping the cultural sector of Illinois connected during tumultuous times was essential. In the fall of 2015 the IACA, in cooperation with Arts Alliance Illinois, hosted the eighth biennial One State: Together in the Arts conference. Through inspiring stories from artists and cultural workers, the conference explored how creative activity promotes positive change. Technology increased statewide 2 | P a g e Illinois Arts Council Agency Biennial Report FY2015- 2016 access with many attendees participating via free live stream. The publically accessible video archive has drawn hundreds of views. The IACA implemented a limited number of programs in this biennium, with priority placed on those that advanced the IACA mission, met the priority for Federal funding, and had the broadest geographic distribution. Because of this strategic investment the IACA was able to maintain funding in nearly every Senate and House district. See attached Grant Lists by Legislative District for details. Retirements and attrition reduced the IACA’s Full Time Equivalent (FTE) to eight staff members by the end of FY2016, less than half of the authorized headcount. Staff duties have been redistributed to insure that essential functions are maintained. The IACA lacks the staff to be adequately involved in initiatives aimed at improving state operations. The IACA measures its impact through the Budgeting for Results (BRF) principles that ‘strengthen cultural and environmental vitality’. Among the successes that the IACA can celebrate in this biennium are: Continued statewide reach of the NEA program Poetry Out Loud which reaches more than 8,000 students and teachers annually. Opportunities for diverse learning with stipend support for paid student internships at cultural organizations. Greater reach to traditional folk artists with NEA support for the IACA Master/Apprentice Program. Support to the IACA is a direct benefit to the citizens of Illinois. 3 | P a g e Illinois Arts Council Agency Biennial Report FY2015- 2016 ILLINOIS ARTS COUNCIL AGENCY BOARD MEMBERS The IACA is governed by a Board comprised of up to 21 private citizens from throughout Illinois who are appointed by the Governor.

FREE ADMISSION Dear friends, Last fall, Third Coast Baroque’s debut series ¡Sarabanda! focused on examining the African and Latin American folk music roots of the sarabande. Today, we will be following the paths of the chaconne, passacaglia and other ostinato rhythms – with origins similar to the sarabande – as they spread across Europe during the 17th century. With this program that we are calling Groove!, we present those intoxicating rhythms in the fashion and flavor of the different countries where they gained popularity. The great European composers wrote masterpieces using the rhythms of these ancient dances to create immortal pieces of art, but their weight and significance is such that we tend to forget where their origins lie. Bach, Couperin, and Purcell – to name only a few – wrote music for highly sophisticated institutions. Still, through these dance rhythms, they were searching for something similar to what the more ancient civilizations had been striving to attain: a connection to the spiritual world.

Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.

For centuries, it has linked the eastern and western regions of the Indian subcontinent, running from Bengal, across north India, into Peshawar, Pakistan. Horses, donkeys, and pedestrians compete with huge trucks, cars, motorcycles, rickshaws, and bicycles along the highway, a commercial route that is dotted with areas of activity right off the road: truck stops, farmer’s stands, bus stops, and all kinds of commercial activity.
