We have begun to re-brand the Clymer image. We would like funds to <br />create an advertising campaign with National magazines, including Website updates, and social media avenues to "Discover <br />Clymer". With funding we can build upon our designation as a top ten Museum of the West, from True West magazine. <br />The 2nd request is for a 3-day event called "Western Makers, Movers and Shakers". It will include and exhibit of Western made <br />items from functional gear to Art objects, to include hat makers, jewelers, furniture makers as well as musicians, spoken word <br />artists, along with workshops and classes. A 3-day event with cooperation from the Ellensburg Rodeo Hall of Fame ending with <br />a community dance. <br />2500 character limit <br />Note: You MUST be present at the Q&A meeting to qualify for funding. <br />https:www.youtube.com/shorts/D3njsEZNIP8 <br />Response 1.3: List of Intended Use of Funds * <br />Note: This language will be related in the contract if awarded. <br />The CLTAC cannot approve funds not listed under RCW 67.28.1816.

Away from their place of residence or business and staying overnight in paid accommodations; <br />2. To a place fifty miles or more away from their place of residence or business for the day or staying overnight; <br />3. Or from another country or state outside of their place of residence or business. <br />You must provide the evidence utilized in determining your projections. <br />Response 2.1: Why would tourists travel to Kittitas County to attend your event/activity/facility?* <br />To draw tourists to our museum or event we need to share that John Clymer actually existed. He is known in the Art world but <br />not to the average person. His extraordinary Art and career should be shared. A recent exhibit in Scottsdale's Western Spirit <br />drew large numbers (I went to see it...) Guest book last year 6800. This year to date is 6559. More visitors have come from out <br />of the area due to a magazine article in Cowboys and Indians. <br />The event we are proposing will draw people from out of the area, because we had something similar years ago, with just music <br />and poetry. This 3-day event will host speakers, classes, workshop and an amazing exhibit. Vendors will also be selling their <br />crafted goods. Being Western is now popular, and we are close to major metropolitan areas to draw from. There are no events <br />like this in our state. <br />2500 character limit <br />Response 2.2: Describe the prior success of your event/activity/facility to attract tourists.* <br />We don't have data for the new event. We keep numbers of our guests daily and with events. Our First Fridays are successful, <br />with over 200 visitors when hosting new exhibits. Artists are often not from the area, and they bring friends and family to see our <br />gallery. <br />2500 character limit <br />Application Questions: Part 2
