As we prepare to celebrate Columbus’s 200th birthday, we are looking forward to another century of achievements for our great city. GCAC is beginning a new era as well—one focused on leading the way to stability and growth for arts and culture in Central Ohio.
GCAC is focused on providing the knowledge, advocacy and collaboration that will
enable artists and arts organizations to flourish even more in the future. As the city’s
champion for the arts, GCAC is dedicated to the values of accountability, sustainability,
diversity, creativity, excellence and innovation. And as a steward of the public trust,
GCAC is committed to investing resources in the arts to provide a positive economic
impact for our community and to make our city an exciting place to live, work and visit.
2011 was a year of significant accomplishments. Just a few of the highlights:
• Total grants were up 14.1 percent, with awards to more than 80 arts organizations
and nearly 50 artists. We successfully launched new grant programs, including
professional development and supply grants for artists, as well as a fellowship
program for media artists.
• GCAC also celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Columbus Arts Festival and the
launch of 13 new festival initiatives. These new programs will continue with our return
to the Riverfront and the new Scioto Mile in 2012.
• With the support of leadership from the city’s public and private sectors and its arts
and culture community, GCAC is leading the effort to develop a sustainable funding
plan for arts and culture in the coming year.
• Throughout 2011 GCAC worked with a cross-section of community members to plan
the celebrations for 200Columbus, our city’s bicentennial. We are excited about this
yearlong celebration that, among many components, will highlight the richness and
depth of the city’s arts and culture.
We want to thank Mayor Michael B. Coleman, the Columbus City Council, the Franklin
County Commissioners, and all of the businesses and individuals who recognize the
importance of arts and culture to both our quality of life and our economic prosperity.
Together we are creating a vibrant Columbus for today and tomorrow.

PROMOTING ARTISTIC EXCELLENCE AND SUSTAINABILITYFebruary 2012 will bring the Columbus Bicentennial,
and GCAC will play a major role in the celebration. The
past 15 months have seen planning and collaboration
for 200Columbus, an effort that will boost community
pride and promote the image of Columbus as a great
place to live, work and visit.
During 2011, GCAC took a leadership role in identifying
funding solutions that will sustain the arts community—
both short-term and long-term. Along with the City of
Columbus, Franklin County, arts organizations, and
leaders from the private and public sector, we are
working to create an environment where the arts and
cultural community can contribute to our quality of life
for a long time to come.
In 2011, the Greater Columbus Arts Council was once
again presented the Ohio Association of Nonprofit
Organizations coveted Standards of Excellence Award,
which the agency has maintained since 2008.

BUILDING AUDIENCES AND CONNECTING THEM WITH ARTISTS
ColumbusArts.com, a service of GCAC, is a guide to all
cultural events and arts organizations in Central Ohio.
It’s also a hub for more than 500 artists in five disciplines—
visual, music, dance, theatre and literature—which makes
it one of only a few free multidisciplinary directories
in the country. With more than 30,000 site visits each
month, ColumbusArts.com is a vital resource that
strengthens awareness, encourages attendance and
fosters participation in the arts.
GCAC further builds audiences for the arts through
cooperative marketing partnerships. We partner with
CD102.5 through biweekly radio interviews where we
share current arts events and happenings; with the
Columbus Arts Marketing Association; with Columbus
Underground, which hosts our biweekly column
that features an inside look at the Columbus art scene;
with Columbus Young Professionals Club, whose
membership reaches over 12,000 young professionals;
and with WOSU Public Media, which broadcasts
ArtZine to nearly 1.5 million viewers annually.

KNOWLEDGE
To support the governance, leadership, technology
and professional development needs of not-for-profit
arts organizations, BOOST (Broadening Organizations’
Overall Skills and Technology) awards grants to help
these groups build their capacity. Recipients make a
long-term commitment to improve and develop the
skills that not only strengthen their organizations,
but also contribute to the cultural vitality of the
greater community.

The Columbus community depends on the
contributions of individual artists to the creative
landscape, and GCAC supports these artists through
artist fellowships, international residency and exchange
programs, and professional development assistance
and supply grants. These funding programs enable
artists to refine and broaden their skills while continuing
to create engaging, innovative work. And through a
partnership with the Columbus Bar Association, we
offer pro bono legal assistance for Franklin County
artists and small arts organizations.
Together, these resources continue to make Columbus
and Franklin County a welcoming home for artists to
create their work and bring it to the public, as well as
an attractive location for residents who seek a rich
cultural life.

as artists.
Through our annual public forum, we interact with the
community to share knowledge and resources, as well
as our accomplishments, our plans and the important
work we’re doing on behalf of the arts.
“This year GCAC’s support enabled
us to create a brochure about our

and to plan handicap accessibility for
our gallery, which is a big step for us.”
CHIEF BABA SHONGO OBADINA, URBAN CULTURAL ARTS FOUNDATION, WILLIAM H. THOMAS GALLERY
“One of the things that has always

CLEVE RICKSECKER, DISCOVERY SPECIAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT
To continue to maintain the vibrancy of the arts in
Central Ohio, we are actively bringing together entities
from a broad cross-section of the community to share
resources, expertise and perspectives.

When distributing grants to artists and arts organizations,
we have a process of annual meetings with recipients to
provide useful feedback on administrative– and project-
based questions from grantees.
With the support of the
Columbus Federation of Settlements, the Art in the House initiative and TRANSIT ARTS enables children to interact with
the arts during out-of-school hours.
Artist fellowships are made available via partnerships with the
Columbus Museum of Art, Columbus Dance Theatre, Columbus Film Council & Thurber House.
The Art Walks
program, promoted by the
Columbus Health Department,
highlights public art in six
Columbus neighborhoods.
Cooperative
exhibitions with the
Columbus Museum of Art
support the work of fellowship
and residency artists.
A $150,000 grant from the
The National Endowment for the Arts is making the Public Art
2012 program possible.
A panel discussion called A Way Forward: Arts and
Economic Development, which featured Les Wexner,
Mayor Coleman, Doug Kridler and NEA Chair Rocco
Landesman, was the result of a partnership with the
Columbus Foundation and the Columbus Partnership.
It brought together civic, business and philanthropic
leaders for a provocative conversation on the value of
the creative sector in building attractive and competitive
cities. The tremendous turnout was a true testament to
the passion of our city’s creative sector for making the
arts a priority as we plan for the future of Columbus.

COLLABORATION
SHARING ART WITH THE COMMUNITY THAT MAKES IT POSSIBLEEvery summer, GCAC is proud to bring the Columbus
Arts Festival to the city, a three-day celebration
that pairs the finest artists and craftspeople with
entertainment, performances and food from the area’s
finest restaurants. The Arts Festival is one of Columbus’s
signature experiences, attracting more than 350,000
attendees each year to experience the work of 240
local, national and international artists. The success
of our flagship event is due in no small part to the
generous support of local business and corporate
sponsors—making the festival completely privately
supported—as well as the efforts of nearly 400
volunteers. And 2012 celebrates the Arts Festival’s
exciting return to the Riverfront.
Our Community Arts Partnership Awards recognize
outstanding contributions to the arts by Columbus
businesses and individuals, and this year’s ceremony
saw more than 350 business leaders, artists, arts
patrons and arts organizations in attendance.
Each year, the Raymond J. Hanley Award, presented
by the Columbus Arts Endowment, grants $10,000
to an artist who has demonstrated a high level of
achievement while working at least five years in the
arts in any discipline. In October, the award’s third
presentation honored Gerald Charles, artistic director
of BalletMet Columbus.
