The ILA formalizes the longstanding relationship between the counties, whose purpose is to enhance, encourage and to fund public expenditures in support of arts and culture between the counties. ITEM BACKGROUND: The term of the ILA is thirty (30) years. BOCC may terminate with 90 days notice but must complete any financial and programmatic commitments previously adopted in that year. The five counties have long cooperated on various artistic and cultural projects. This ILA will formalize the existing relationship, consisting of a Consortium composed of a volunteer board. Each county designates a member of the Consortium who serves without compensation. Under the ILA the Consortium shall create an annual budget, which is subject to BOCC approval and the Consortium shall not spend or commit more funds that it has not received; it shall have the ability to sue or be sued in its own name, and it shall bear all liabilities incurred due to its acts. The County member of the Consortium shall submit an annual budget request to the BOCC for its Consortium -related expenses pertaining to operating and capital expenditures, which budget shall be implemented upon BOCC approval. Audits are conducted, attached is a copy of 2011-2012 final budget and the County Attorney of Miami- Dade will do the legal work. PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION: The BOCC passed former Resolution No 083-1985 and Resolution approving an ILA among Broward County, Monroe County, Palm Beach County and Dade County relating to the creation of the South Florida Cultural Consortium, and Resolution 403 — 1989 authorizing the mayor to execute an amendment to the agreement to the creation of the South Florida Cultural Consortium. It is clear that the Resolutions passed but a copy of the signed documents have not been located. This new agreement will clear up the issue and allow the ELA to move forward.

REGIONAL MARKETING, OUTREACH AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT 1) Innovative Partnership for Regional Development — US Department of Housing and Urban Development's (US HUD) Sustainable Communities Planning Grants Program: The SFCC is a "Consortium Partner" of the Southeast Florida Regional Partnership's (SFRP) HUD Sustainable Communities Regional Planning Grant.

The SFCC remains actively engaged as a key partner in the development if the SFRP Sustainable Communities "Seven50 - Vision and Blueprint for Economic Prosperity" workplan, incorporating the arts into each its defined major focus areas: Housing, Transportation, Community cultural assets, Water, Environment, Climate resiliency, Education, Healthy communities and inclusive regional leadership. 2) Voices and Venues: The SFCC maintained its a-zine "Voices and Venues," a bi-monthly regional electronic newsletter for artists and cultural organizations of all disciplines. The Palm Beach County Cultural Council coordinates the e-newsletter, with information contributed by the other SFCC member counties. 3) Theatre League of South Florida: Through the auspices of the Miami -Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs, the SFCC provided significant technical and financial assistance to the Theatre League of South Florida, the only service organization for the theater industry in the region. The Theatre League is an alliance of theatrical organizations and theater professionals dedicated to nurturing, promoting, and advocating for the growth and prestige of the South Florida theater industry. 4) Regional Budget Advocacy and the Florida Cultural Arts Alliance (FCAA): The SFCC reinforced its role as advocate for strong arts policy and funding throughout the state through its leadership -level membership in the Florida Cultural Arts Alliance. SFCC Board members continue to serve as officers in the statewide FCAA. 5) The Carbonell Awards: The SFCC provided leadership through representation on the board and financial assistance to The Carbonell Awards, the regional non-profit that annually recognizes and honors excellence in theater and the arts. The Carbonell Awards, established in 1976, celebrates the extraordinary work of theatrical professionals in South Florida, and furthers the development of the next generation of working theater artists in our community. SOUTH FLORIDA CULTURAL CONSORTIUM ACTIVITIES REPORT 2011-2012 Page 1 of 3 B. VISUAL AND MEDIA ARTISTS FELLOWSHIPS. 1) 2012 Winners & Judges: The SFCC awarded $150,000 in fellowships to 11 individual artists in Broward, Miami -Dade, Monroe and Palm Beach counties. A two-step jurying process was employed to adjudicate artists' works, first by a regional panel, with finalists being selected by a national panel through a competitive process. 312 applications were submitted, including 82 from Broward County artists, 6 from Martin County artists, 154 from Miami -Dade County artists, 23 from Monroe County artists, and 47 from Palm Beach County artists. The 2012 regional panel was comprised of Cheryl Brutvan, Curator of Contemporary Art, Norton Museum of Art, Palm Beach County; Kathleen Carignan, Former Executive Director, LegalArt, Miami -Dade County; Denise Gerson, Former Associate Director, Lowe Museum of Art, Miami -Dade County; Jane Hart, Curator, Art and Culture Center of Hollywood, Broward County; Kristin Korolowicz, Knight Curatorial Fellow, Bass Museum of Art, Miami -Dade County; and Cristina Lei Rodriguez, 2011 SFCC Recipient, Miami -Dade County.

Recipients of the fellowships will be honored at the opening reception. This continues to be an essential feature of the Fellowships program, enabling South Florida artists to be shown in major exhibitions in the flagship visual arts institutions throughout the region. The annual exhibitions rotate across the counties, being hosted in a different County's major museum each year. As has been the practice every year since the Fellowships program's inception, a catalogue of the winners is being published and distributed specifically for the show. 3) Applicant Workshops: Technical assistance to applicants was provided through a series of application preparation workshops led by Brandi Reddick, Communications and Artists Manager for the Art in Public Places Program of the Miami -Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs. For FY2012, workshops occurred as follows: August 18, 2011 — Gato Building in Monroe County; September 7, 2011 — ArtServe in Broward County; September 13, 2011 — LegalArt in Miami -Dade County; and September 14, 2011 — Lighthouse Art Center in Palm Beach County. C. REGIONAL ARTS IN EDUCATION INITIATIVES 1) Regional Teaching Artists Certification Initiative: The SFCC continued to advance its initiative to establish a Regional Certification Program for Teaching Artists with the objective of creating standards, parameters and/or curricula for certification that are common among the five counties. Regional certification would serve to elevate the quality and professionalism of South Florida's teaching artists, provide more employment opportunities and improve communities' arts education programs through the region. The SFCC drafted and issued a Request for Proposals for Professional Arts Education Services to develop a Regional Teaching Artists Certification Program the deliverables of which include: conducting research on regional, national and international models and soliciting input from regional stakeholders including teaching artists, non-profit cultural organizations, local arts agencies, teaching artist service organizations and umbrella groups, educators, school system SOUTH FLORIDA CULTURAL CONSORTIUM ACTIVITIES REPORT 2011-2012 Page 2 of 3 representatives and administrators and universities; creating a curriculum blueprint outlining coursework and equivalencies required for certification; developing a community -based residency component as a key part of the curriculum; and identifying, cultivating and prioritizing with key stakeholders to implement the certification program; and a phased work plan and preliminary budget estimate to advance the work. There were five respondents to the RFP, from among whom Arts for Learning Miami was selected and contracted to provide these Phase 1 services. D. PLANS FOR FY2013 Given the level of State grant funds for FY2012, the SFCC did not reapply for state grant support, in order not to deplete further the critically needed state funds available to the cultural organizations and artists in the five -county region. During FY2013, the SFCC will continue to work to develop strategic partnership projects as a Consortium Partner and active member of the Southeast Florida Partnership's US HUD Sustainable Communities Planning grant; and explore other regional arts in education, marketing, outreach and professional development initiatives, including workshops examining fundraising through social media. Planned cooperative marketing initiatives include: continued support for our e-newsletter, "Voices and Venues;" examining opportunities to continue professional development series; and continuing to explore development of regional services for the industry (e.g., e-ticketing services for non-profit arts groups; a regional shared calendar of events database, etc.). The SFCC has eleven $15,000 visual and media arts fellowships awards budgeted for FY2013. The annual winners' exhibition is planned for a major collecting institution in Palm Beach County.
