COMMENTS FROM GRANT EVALUATORS
FY 1988 GOS APPLICATION REVIEW SHEET
EVALUATORS. . .
Organization good. Financial management sound. Use of GOS funds good -
direct public enjoyment.
• Evaluation program of your programs is fine! Again - cheers for
Discovery.Area.
Exhibition program conforms well to purpose and is broad, especially in
. terms of mediums; both local and national artists are represented. Uses
for general appreciation are innovative; Discover Area should be popular
with community.
Strong program with balance in accordance with statement of purpose.
Good effort to appeal to different audiences.
Good to see Board members working as volunteers. Organizational
structure seems effective and financial condition looks sound.
Excellent, high standards considering size of staff. Indicates high
commitment by all.
HORIZONS - A SPECIAL PROJECTS GRANT
EVALUATOR - JIM POWERS, KANSAS MUSEUM OF HISTORY, TOPEKA
The Discovery Area at the Salina Art Center is a delightfully innovative
facility which has been effective in removing barriers that have
traditionally existed between the "art" in art museums (and centers) and
the majority of visitors to these institutions which have often and
justifiably been called "ivory towers. " The Salina Art Center is no
"ivory tower" and the Discovery Area is one very important reason why.
EVALUATOR - ANDREW SVEDLOW, MULVANE ART CENTER, TOPEKA
•
This is a cultural institution that Salina can be very proud of and which
is truly a model for community art institutions and for art education.
The environment, the staff, the materials and publications, the
promotional mechanism, and all the other details of an Art Center's
public programs are operational, creative, stimulating and very sound.
The Salina Art Center is a fixture in the Salina community with a growing
statewide reputation for its high quality and commitment to bringing art
into the daily lives of its audiences.
