STANDING UP A CITY ARTS PROGRAM
City of Charlottesville / City Manager's Office
Description
The City of Charlottesville, through the City Manager’s Strategy Office (CMO) is seeking proposals from qualified consultants to complete all of the steps required to centralize the City of Charlottesville's arts and culture coordination, management, and resources. The goal is two pronged. First, the consultant will create the policies, procedures, and processes for an appointed, volunteer city public arts commission. Second, the City seeks a qualified professional to stand up a 501(c)(3) arts council to serve the City of Charlottesville, implementing the recommendations from the 2025-2026 Charlottesville Area Arts Council Feasibility Study (see Attachment B). When the project is completed, the consultant will hand off a ready-to-go new public arts program to a city staff employee. The role of this arts council will be to serve as an independent, centralized body that can coordinate, manage, and act as a public liaison for the City’s broad public arts infrastructure. All of this work will be done with the intention of embracing Charlottesville's vibrant arts infrastructure by making it more visible and accessible to all who enjoy the City.
