Future Plans *Gallery One produces a balanced operating budget every year. We are fortunate to <br />have diverse income streams to help balance any specific program or event <br />shortcoming. ln addiiion, we have built up a modest reserve as a parachute. We <br />have done everything we can to not "cancel" events over ihe pandemic. but instead <br />reimagine them through a combination of in person and online offerings. Our events <br />and activities are covered through a combination of tickei sales, sponsorships, <br />volunteerism, and donations. <br />2500 character limit <br />Application Questions.

Our response was to make sure that our community near and <br />far had access to the content by providing online versions of our exhibits, our <br />classes, our events and our gift shop. We responded in the following ways: <br />- create virtual learning opportunities through zoom <br />- create "to-go" art kits with nraterials and instructions <br />- expand our online gift shop <br />- conduct PechaKucha events virtually <br />- change our benefit auction and event to a hybrid event <br />- hire a marketing expert to help push out content virtually <br />- cancel, postpone or extend exhibits such as First Fridays, President's Dinner, Soup <br />Line, facility rentals, and studio tours <br />Some experiments have been better received than others but overall they have <br />increased our online presence and also to help generate some income for the <br />organization. PechaKucha while not profitable currently has over 3.000 views on <br />YouTube from around the globe. <br />We are very fortunate to have a brick and mortar location that can still welcome <br />visitors into our space offering access to our exhibits and classes in person. <br />With the support of Lodging Tax funds, we have worked tirelessly to make sure that <br />our "brand" is not forgoiten by our visitors near and far through the above efforts so <br />that Ellensburg is still known as a place to visit through marketing efforts. <br />You rray ilpload aDy supporting docunren13 surh as graphs. irnages. diaqrants nlarketitlg male.ials e!c. <br />2A22GalleryAne Supplemental Materials.pdf 508.07K8 <br />You are allor,red to sullntil up ta 3 single page iUS Lellnr] doc{.l.lenls <br />'n <br />.lpG. pDF or i lFF farryral <br />7l Previous Lodging Tax Grant lnformation <br />2500 character llmit <br />250{l characler lintilAdditional lnformation <br />Supporting Documents <br />Previous Years <br />Awarded Lodging Tax <br />Grants * <br />Has yoilr eveBt receaved Lodging Tax ftnds in previous years" <br />' ., No, this event/project has not previously received Lodging Tax Funding <br />.: Yes, '1 year previous <br />; Yes, 2 years previous <br />' Yes. 3 or more years previous <br />Overall Attendnace
