Future Plans* With 49 years of consistent community support from a diverse base, we have been <br />able to both weather troubled times and grow to adjust to the needs of the <br />community. Gallery One has multiple sources of income that include memberships, <br />sponsorships, ticket sales, earned income, donations and grants. In 1999, Gallery <br />One purchased the Stewart building. Each specific event that we produce including <br />the Soup Line, Paint Ellensburg, Confab and First Friday is supported through a <br />variety of ticket sales and business sponsors. See attached income/expense <br />statement for specifics. In past years Gallery One has been awarded funds from <br />the National Endowment for the Arts, Washington State Arts Commission, <br />Ellensburg Arts Commission, McMillen Foundation, Umpqua Bank, Wells Fargo and <br />corporate and local businesses. For our 50th Anniversary we will be hiring an <br />Engagement Coordinator to help offset new expenses related to the 50th including <br />advertising, the 16 page booklet and our 50th Anniversary exhibit through <br />acquiring business and community partnerships and sponsorships. Regarding a <br />cost-recovery model, all of our events have an income and expenses that are <br />meant to balance out. It's the excess of these events that support our free <br />programs for youth, salaries and other general operating expenses (utilities, <br />repairs, etc). We have accumulated a small nest egg in case of loss or unexpected <br />expenses. <br />2500 character linit <br />Application Questions: Part 4 <br />61 Additional Information <br />Provide any additional information which will assist the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee in evaluating your <br />project and its benefit to tourism.
