the art being auctioned and collecting signatures from the art buyers.WAA supplies the auction staff for the <br />Ellensburg Rodeo Hall of Fame auction and offers both Spirit of the West Cowboy Gathering and the EIIensburg <br />Rodeo Hall of Fame a 10x20 booth in our May event at no charge to either organization. <br />Question 6)There are several ways for our event to become self-sufficient: <br />1.Attendance:we need to see new faces and new buyers in a younger age group.Many of <br />our collectors and former buyers are now downsizing their living arrangements and no <br />longer have room for new art.How do we attract a younger age group who have not <br />been collectors or buyers but do have sufficient income to purchase artworks?This is not a <br />new problem and has been the "$64 Dollar Question"we are trying to find an answer for. <br />2.Community Support:We would like to see our community support our show by attending <br />during the three day run.There is no charge to attend and the artists would like to see our <br />folks come out in support.When the people who live here do not support an event,even free <br />ones,it raises the question of why? <br />3.The Western Art Association has an ongoing commitment to bring new artists into the show <br />so visitors have more to view and see art in various impressions.Some of our artists have <br />been with the show for a long time and just as with the collectors,time is taking its toll on the <br />numbers. <br />If we can overcome one or all of the above there would be no doubt that we would be self-sufficient. <br />Question 8)Budget which includes P&L for 2014-2015-2016. <br />Question 9)Yes we have received Lodging Tax Funds in previous years:List Attached <br />Prior Year Projected <br />A.How many participants and spectators <br />attended last year's activity and/or will <br />attend this year?1000 1300 <br />B.How many days did/will your event occur?3 days 3 days <br />C.How many room nights were and /or will be <br />Booked as a result of your project/event? <br />(You must provide a verifiable source of <br />information as evidence for your response <br />to item C.Failure to do so will disqualify <br />your response.)162*350** <br />*Information derived from ticket and auction sales <br />**Projected estimate based on anticipated attendance <br />Question 10)Application certification: <br />The applicant here certifies and affirms:1.That it does not now,or will it during the performance of an contract arising from this <br />application,unlawfully discriminate against any employee,applicant for employment,client,customer,or other person who might benefit <br />from said contract,by reason of age,race color,ethnicity,sex,religion,military status,sexual orientation,creed,place of birth,or disability; <br />2.That it will abide by all relevant local,m state and federal laws and regulations and;3.That it has read the information contained in the <br />instructions on pages l and 2 and understands and will comply Ith all provisions thereof. <br />Certified by:(signature) <br />(print n JoAnn Wise <br />Title:Director,Treasurer <br />D ate:September 29,2016
