Changing the Government Funding Dynamic: Alternative Revenue SourcesWest Muse
As traditional sources of government funding, including direct federal grants, re-granting through NEA and NEH, and state appropriations, continue to stay flat (at best), museums are turning to alternative revenue sources that require local, rather than national support, such as Lodgers Tax, tax increment financing districts, income tax check-offs, and municipal, county, state, and higher education bonds. This session examines the ways that museums and museum coalitions can work with local governments and their communities to create and implement these types of funding.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

ZGB - The Role of Generative AI in Government transformation.pdfSaeed Al Dhaheri
This keynote was presented during the the 7th edition of the UAE Hackathon 2024. It highlights the role of AI and Generative AI in addressing government transformation to achieve zero government bureaucracy
This session provides a comprehensive overview of the latest updates to the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (commonly known as the Uniform Guidance) outlined in the 2 CFR 200.
With a focus on the 2024 revisions issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), participants will gain insight into the key changes affecting federal grant recipients. The session will delve into critical regulatory updates, providing attendees with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate and comply with the evolving landscape of federal grant management.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the rationale behind the 2024 updates to the Uniform Guidance outlined in 2 CFR 200, and their implications for federal grant recipients.
- Identify the key changes and revisions introduced by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in the 2024 edition of 2 CFR 200.
- Gain proficiency in applying the updated regulations to ensure compliance with federal grant requirements and avoid potential audit findings.
- Develop strategies for effectively implementing the new guidelines within the grant management processes of their respective organizations, fostering efficiency and accountability in federal grant administration.
2. “The findings from Arts & Economic Prosperity III send a clear and
welcome message: leaders who care about community and economic
development can feel good about choosing to invest in the arts.”
- Robert L. Lynch President and CEO, Americans for the Arts
“As Chairman of the Oklahoma Chamber of Commerce, I visited almost
every city and town in the state. There is a visible difference in places
with an active cultural community. I see people looking for places to
park, stores staying open late, and restaurants packed with customers.
The business day is extended and the cash registers are ringing.”
- Ken Fergeson Chairman and CEO, NBanC Past President, American Bankers Association
3. But seriously what’s the ROI for
investing in the arts?
In Massachusetts: For every $1
invested in the arts, $5 goes back
into the local community.
- Mass Cultural Council (2016)
4. Case Study: Lowell
Many cities and towns have an “Office of Arts, Culture, and Tourism,” which is dedicated to boosting cultural events,
public art commissions, and tourism. Cities continue to fund these offices, because there is a significant return on
investment (ROI).
The Office of Cultural Affairs & Special Events is the official arts and
events agency for the City of Lowell. Established by City ordinance in
May 2008, CASE accomplishes its mission by planning yearly
community events including the 4th of July celebration, Downtown
Trick or Treating in partnership with Monster Bash, City of Lights,
Winterfest, and the annual St. Patrick's Day event. In addition, the
office of CASE provides logistical support for major events like the
Lowell Folk Festival, the Bay State Marathon, and the Southeast Asian
Water Festival. For smaller community events, the office of CASE
provides assistance with the public event permitting process.
Working together, COOL and CASE created the “Guide to Permitting
for Festivals and Special Events” to make the process of navigating
City services easier.
5. What has been the ROI for establishing Lowell’s COOL initiative
by City ordinance? Here’s what they accomplished, just last year:
Number of Lowell Events Promoted Annually 2,500
Number of Partner Organizations 260
Large-Scale Events (1,000-150,000 attendees)
Hosted and/or Permitted

Overall Attendance for Events and/or Permits

Total Outside Funding (non-City) $229,748
*Note: “outside funding” does not calculate revenue generated from events and tourism.
More than a dozen
large scale events,

¼ of a million guests in
attendance annually
Substantial private
sector investment:

Total of 2,500 events
promoted annually
6. $137,170
The city of Lowell allocates
towards their Office of
Cultural Affairs, Arts & Special Events
8. We may not have the funding to develop our own
City “office for arts and tourism” (as we once had),
but Creative Haverhill is already doing much of
the described “COOL” (Lowell City Arts + Tourism
Office) work.
9. Haverhill is home to one of only 25 officially
designated Cultural Districts in the state of
Massachusetts!
12. Creative Haverhill provides the vehicle for achieving what Lowell’s City managed office has done.
Why are we better
positioned?
1. Creative Haverhill already exists - no need to
reinvent the wheel.
2. Most cities and towns put 1-3 people on the city’s
tourism and arts payroll, incurring additional costs
to the city. Creative Haverhill independently
operates on their own books, eliminating the
costs of bringing on more city employees.
13. So we have the
vehicle -- now let’s
accelerate it.

15. A public-private partnership
● City of Lowell invests $137,000 in their office of arts and tourism. The
private sector in Lowell invests $211,000 into the arts and tourism.
● Haverhill will get the ball rolling with $45,000. Companies will collectively,
at the very least, match the $45,000.
● The good news: several companies already have a relationship with
Creative Haverhill.
A $90,000 boost to arts,
tourism, and economic
development.
16. Re-cap
● Creative Haverhill will remain an independent body, eliminating
the need to have more city employees.
● City of Haverhill establishes public-private partnership,
“ACT! Haverhill” – investing 5% of meals tax and 5% of parking
fines into Creative Haverhill, combined with corporate sponsors
that will collectively match the city’s investment.
● Creative Haverhill will use these funds to promote arts, culture,
and tourism, as a tool for Haverhill economic development.
