Letter from The Mayor new york city: a legacy of supporting the arts

The arts are a central element in the life of New York: they strengthen our communities, foster a climate of creativity, generate a sense of place and identity, and contribute to the spiritual and economic health of our city. The arts also reflect our City’s remarkable diversity. Almost 40% of New York City’s population is foreign- born, and the City’s newest New Yorkers bring ideas and art forms that enrich our City and help preserve the many cultures that make this the world’s second home. New York City government has a strong tradition of sup- porting the arts and culture, and during the past five years, we have been able to steadily build on that foundation. New Yorkers know that excellence in the arts and maintaining a climate of creativity are essential to the future of our City. That is why in all five boroughs, we are making sure that artistic organizations and programs are contributing to the energy and vitality of our neighborhoods. Leading our efforts is the Department of Cultural Af- fairs, which this year is celebrating its 30th anniversary. In recognition of the critical and growing role that the

Mayor Bloomberg at the New Department plays in our City – one that is reflected on York Hall of Science, Queens the pages of this annual report – I am pleased to report   that our Administration is providing a new home for the DCA in a landmark downtown building: the historic Surrogate’s Courthouse. Located in the heart of lower Manhattan and across the street from City Hall and the Department of Education, this new location allows DCA to help shape the transfor- mation of Lower Manhattan and foster the arts in our public schools. And it reflects my personal commitment to the cultural life of our City. Finally, let me take this opportunity to salute the vol- unteer leadership, dedicated staff, talented artists, and voracious audience members of New York City’s arts organizations who contribute so much to our City’s life. I encourage all New Yorkers to explore our vast cultural and artistic treasures, which are what truly distinguish New York from other cities around the world.

When we moved to New York, I found that all too often people would visit the City without ever hearing one word about the New York Philharmonic, let alone about the Brooklyn Philharmonic, the American Symphony Orchestra, Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, or Flushing Town Hall (to name only some of our great musical institutions). Now, some twenty-five years later, that has changed. Thanks Agnes Gund to Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, Deputy Mayor Patricia E. Chairman, Cultural Affairs Advisory Commission Harris, and Commissioner Kate D. Levin, culture is increas- ingly in the minds and on the tongues of New Yorkers. We no longer take the arts for granted. Mayor Bloomberg has helped New Yorkers appreciate the actors, artists, dancers, musicians, and other performers and cultural organizations that make this City so great.

Supporting Excellence and Expanding Access...

In 2003, DCA created the Cultural Development Fund Historically, capital dollars were only available to cultural (CDF) to reward excellence through a merit-based projects in City-owned facilities.

Since the inception of the CDF, applications to the Pro- grams Services Unit are up by 23%. Over the past year alone, applications have grown from 820 in FY2006 to over 880 for FY2007. The growth in number of overall organizations being funded has expanded as well: nearly 100 more organiza- tions were funded in FY2006 compared with the first year of the CDF. Almost 420 groups were awarded a total of nearly $2 million.

Providing Technical Asistance... making it possible to make art

New York City has always partnered with the private sector to support the arts. In 2003, Mayor Bloomberg ap- pointed a new slate of members to the City Charter-man- dated Cultural Affairs Advisory Commission. Chaired by Agnes Gund, this 21-member body is comprised of individuals representing the broad diversity and strength Warm Up 2006 at of the City’s cultural community, including executive P.S.1. , Queens directors of organizations, artists, philanthropists, and community and business leaders. The Commission has supported DCA’s work in providing technical assistance and convening sessions on key issues to the field. In 2005, the Commission helped conceive of the New York City Capital Resource Corporation (CRC), a financing instrument, that was designed and implemented by the EDC to help small and mid-sized cultural organizations be able to access capital financing. The CRC’s fundamen- tal innovation was pooling nonprofits, thereby limiting certain obstacles associated with commercial lending options. The Commission created and hosted two seminars, in 2004 and 2005, entitled Advancing Culture Through Management. These explored the relationships between 24 25 administrators and board members and examined the with the City budget, procurement processes, and capital challenges of nonprofit management.

Infusing the arts throughout New York City…

making art a daily experience

In February 2005, New York City welcomed Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s The Gates to Central Park. The proj- ect, which rejuvenated the City and enlivened the Park, consisted of saffron-colored fabric attached to 7,500 gates and displayed along 23 miles of paved paths throughout Central Park. The project also had a tremendous impact on the City, generating $254 million in economic activity. DCA worked with the EDC and NYC & Company to quantify the impact of The Gates on nonprofit arts orga- nizations and found: • El Museo del Barrio (Fifth Avenue and 104th Street) reported weekend attendance increased by 100%. left: • The Museum of the City of New York A Studio in a School fourth (Fifth Avenue and 103rd Street) reported a grade student at PS 196 in Brooklyn painting a plexiglass 78% increase in attendance.

To share the City’s good practices and coinciding with The Gates, Strategies for Public Art was a three-day in- ternational summit that was organized by the Sister City Program and DCA. Representatives from most of New York’s Sister Cities participated, including delegates from Tokyo, Beijing, Madrid, Rome, Budapest, Jerusalem, London, and Johannesburg, who met with New York City officials and representatives from the Public Art Fund, Creative Time, the borough arts councils, the Parks De- partment, and the Department of Education. In addition to presentations and discussion, the group toured some of the City’s cultural organizations and held sessions at P.S.1, MoMA, NYU, and the Department of Education. For more information, go to: www.nyc.gov/sistercities In addition, working with the New York City Partnership, the Rockefeller Foundation, and the Center for an Urban Future, DCA helped develop the content for Creative New York, a conference at The Museum of Modern Art in April 2006. The sessions brought together more than 200 leaders from New York’s creative communities with government officials and explored strategies to ensure that New York City remains at the forefront of the world’s creative economy.

Department of Cultural Affairs an overview

DCA represents and serves the following major The Department extends its support for the constituencies: nonprofit cultural community through the following divisions: • Nonprofit organizations in the visual, literary and performing arts; The Program Services Unit currently awards annual grants to more than 660 cultural organizations through- • Public-oriented sciences and humanities institutions, out the five boroughs for a broad array of activities. This including zoos, botanical gardens, and historical and preservation societies; funding is a strategic element in supporting the work of private nonprofit cultural organizations and serves as a • Service organizations providing technical assistance, catalyst for further contributions from the private sector affordable rehearsal and studio space, and advocacy for nonprofit cultural organizations and individual artists; or other levels of government. For example, the 820 groups applying for support in FY 2006 raised, in the ag- • Creative artists from all disciplines; gregate, over $1.7 billion last year to provide a depth and • Public school students; breadth of service unparalleled elsewhere in the country. • The 8.2 million residents of New York City who benefit Funds are awarded through DCA’s Program Services from our vibrant cultural life; and unit for specific public services provided by nonprofit • The over 40 million tourists who visit the City each year. cultural institutions in New York City. There are three processes through which allocations are made in the Program Services Unit and each involves the submission of an annual uniform application to DCA. Louis Armstrong, with neighborhood children, The Cultural Development Fund (CDF) is DCA’s compet- on the steps of his home in the itive process for allocating program support. Applications late 1960’s (now maintained as the Louis Armstrong from groups eligible for CDF support are reviewed by House) ;Queens

50 51 panels of experts in the field and elected official repre- sentatives, and awards are recommended to and approved by the Commissioner. CDF supports organizations that are not included as Line Items in the budget and those that do not receive a substantial Member Item. Line Items are annually recurring allocations for specific organizations that are included in the City’s budget. Al- most all Line Items were created by the Mayor or another member of the Board of Estimate after 1982 and before 1989, when the City’s Charter was revised to dissolve the Board. Member Items are one-time allocations to organizations as determined by City Council Members during the budget adoption process. The Cultural Institutions Unit, serves the 34 CIGs, all of which occupy City-owned property. Funding provided by the Unit helps care for the City’s buildings and most often covers a portion of the salaries for their administra- tive, curatorial, maintenance, and security staff. The Unit also offers managerial assistance and technical advice to these institutions. Both the Mayor and the Com- missioner of Cultural Affairs sit ex officio on the boards of each institution. The Capital Projects Unit oversees most of the projects it funds from the design and development phase through completion, working as the liaison between the cultural organization and the City agencies involved with the proj- ect, including the Economic Development Corporation, Previous page: the Department of Design and Construction, and the Pregones Theater, The Red Rose/La Rosa Roja, Bronx Department of City-wide Administrative Services.
