Our Franklin Street gallery was established in 2010 with 20 artist members who conceived,created,and now operate FRANK.The town of Chapel Hill,the Downtown Partnership,local businesses,and individuals provided initial funding to launch FRANK.The gallery showcases contemporary art by established local and regional artists,exhibiting the work of more than 200 artists, attracting more than 15,000 people a year to the Gallery and downtown Chapel Hill. The mission of the Franklin Street Arts Collective is to support the arts community of Chapel Hill and the region,strengthen appreciation of the arts through educational outreach,and promote Chapel Hill and North Carolina as a major arts destination.Through the non-profit arm of our gallery,we strive to provide a stimulating, inclusive,and accessible resource in Orange County as a catalyst for sharing of ideas and inspiration,forming partnerships using art as a medium for communication and community building. Audiences Served, Outreach and Education Programs Through the Non-Profit Arm of FRANK Gallery With membership and grant support,FRANK offers artist salons,art critique,and educational programs for children,teens,seniors,and refugee populations.Twice a year our Community Outreach Gallery hosts nontraditional art exhibitions including cross cultural partnerships with schools,mental health agencies,and hospital programs.Twice a month FRANK offers Thursday evening salons with 15-60 participants per salon. Member artists and consigners share their work and methods with the community. Guest artists read original poetry,present theatrical skits,and perform traditional and experimental music. For children and teens, member artists regularly partner with Kidzu, the Sacrificial Poets, and McDougle Elementary School. This year we added the Karen Youth Group for Burmese refugee children, Phillips Middle School, UNC photojournalism class' The "37" Frame, to our Community Gallery. For seniors FRANK hosts programs for the Chapel Hill Senior Center, Meadowmont, and Triangle area retirement centers. For health care patients FRANK provides support and activities for the UNC Health Care System; Recreational Therapy and Child Life Center, the pediatric ward at the Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Brushes with Life, a community health organization exhibiting artists with mental illness. Teens from the iCANcer photo program sponsored by the physical therapy program at the University of North Carolina Hospitals' Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Unit visited our 2013 OCAC sponsored teens photography exhibition. With 2011 grant support from OCAC, FRANK offered its first series of educational workshops for adults offering drawing, photography, and singing. Member artists have demonstrated traditional pottery techniques, black-and-white and infrared photography, encaustic painting, watercolor techniques, eco farming, dance, bookmaking as art, wallpaper and file design and drawing. See attached documents of community events from 2010-2013 Y Proposed Uses of Grant Funds and Project Description FRANK Gallery Karen Youth Art Group The FRANK Gallery Karen Outreach initiative has been operating for over six months.During this time the artist members and community volunteers have worked on a 1:1 basis with young Karen refugee students in the fields of photography,drawing and painting.The Karen Outreach Coordinator Fran Hamer transports the students to each weekly class.We have been meeting at both FRANK Gallery and at the Transplanting Traditions Farm where many of the students assist their parents on their allotments - both venues are important to the students. During these six months the students,ages 16-23,have been prolific enough to produce work for two exhibitions- one at FRANK Gallery and another currently at the Carrboro Branch Library.These shows aim to help raise the students' self esteem.They have named their group the Karen Youth Art Group.The Group is both highly motivated and talented and we are hoping that two of its students will be able to attend the Arts Center Summer School on scholarships while,of course,remaining in the KYAG. In its incubation phase,we are requesting OCAG funding to enable us to continue our projects during the coming year.We wish to purchase art materials and continue encouraging this group of talented young artists to finish their education and embark on professioal careers,exceeding the economic standards of their refugee parents.At the same time,we appreciate family and culture. We encourage them to embrace their Karen cultural identity,supporting their parents with the English language and with their younger siblings while the parents work multiple low wage jobs. FRANK:inFocus,Autism Awareness Month In 2012 we received grant support to present FRANK:inFocus; Focus on Teens with college bound minority teens showing academic promise and financial need as identified by their school guidance counselors.During the gallery exhibition,FRANK hosted local teens from hospital and therapeutic groups.We continue to build relationships with other non-profit organizations and community health centers representing Orange County,forming new partnerships with agencies that serve youth around themes of photography and literacy,self-advocacy,and community historic documentation. Continuing our focus on youth and challenges and using the Karen Youth Art Group community outreach model,we will begin a second project with children ,and teens on the Autism Spectrum.Our FRANK model reaches into the community to provide workshops for youth,then brings them back to the gallery to work with professional artists,inclusive of a professional public exhibition venue and reception. Because April is Autism Awareness month,FRANK gallery will host speakers from UNC,the Orange County Autism Society,recreation,art,drama,and music therapists,and families with members on the spectrum. We are particularly interested in working with youth who thrive within specialized alternative learning environments that stresses creativity.Our outreach includes the Jordan Lake School of the Arts,a program that serves many Orange County families (See letter of support from Beth Kuklinski, director and founder).We are hoping to collaborate as well with Yasmine White,founder and executive director of Voices Together,a Triangle based innovative program for 3 , individuals with developmental disabilities designed to increase independence and self- advocacy using music as a therapeutic technique and Deborah Zuver,co-director Project STIR(Steps Toward Independence and Responsibility) with Carolina Institute for Developmental Disabilites,and Mary Lou Gelblum,PhD Tammy Lynn Center for Developmental Disabilites Raleigh,NC. FRANK:inFocus 2015, 4'd Annual Triangle Photo Consortium In conjunction with our Community Outreach mission,FRANK gallery requests funding from the Arts Commission to support our Educational Outreach programs. With past grant support from OCAC,we have now formed a Triangle based photo consortium with our focus on Orange County. FRANK:inFocus,our first annual 2012 fall photo festival brought together over 15 salons,lectures,and exhibition venues throughout Orange County and the Triangle with over$10,000 combined in-kind and cash support.Last year,with seed funding from OCAC,we doubled that with in-kind support from museums,universities,art centers,and galleries to create the 2013 North Carolina Museum of Art Photography Consortium. Our gallery will produce the centerpiece exhibition,FRANK:inFocus; Inspired by the Lens in September 2014. Funds from the 2012-2013 fall OCAC grant FRANK:inFocus supported our featured photography exhibition and showcased the work of FRANK artists and photographers with panel discussions on lens-based art at the Ackland Museum. Our community partners co-hosted salons during the Triangle wide NCMA Photography Consortium that FRANK pioneered. We attribute the sustainability of this photography program to seed funding support from OCAC,Downtown Partnerships,and Arts and Innovation grants,and foresaw its future to be a continued and more comprehensive consortium bringing together a diverse population of lens-based artists in Orange County and the Triangle with exhibitions,workshops,art salons,seminars,and discussion forums. Our 2013 brochure produced with the North Carolina Museum of Art design department is included in this report. In 2014,we have expanded to include over 18 participants with our Triangle universities,photo programs,galleries,and museums.This year we co-ordinating the administrative duties with Frank Konhaus,an art collector and director of an artist-in- residency program called Cassihaus.To date we have collected over$4500 in cash contributions alone for 2014 Triangle Photo Consortium in matching grant support, including funding from the Ackland Art Museum,UNC Art Department,Light+Design Gallery,Framers Corner,Daylight Magazine and Gallery in Chapel Hill,Hillsborough, and Carrboro; North Carolina Museum of Art,Contemporary Art Museum,and Flanders Gallery in Raleigh; Durahm Art Guild,Through This Lens Gallery,and Nasher Museum in Durham. 1 In-Kind Support from FRANK and Use of OCAC Funds FRANK Gallery: For each of our Community Gallery exhibitions,our salaried gallery manager produces a Show Card listing participating artists and program events and assists with marketing and promotion through social media and direct mailing.FRANK gallery hosts opening receptions for each event. FRANK:inFocus,Karens Project We continue to receive in-kind contributions of photographic equipment such as a mini printer and one compact consumer-level camera for our Karen workshops. Community volunteers provide teaching support,transportation and food. Funding from OCAC provides art supplies for our workshops and exhibition materials including bilingual Show Cards,signage,and display items for the children's final exhibition and community presentation.Funds for marketing enable us to reach wider partnerships and support through printed brochure and social media management. FRANK:inFocus,Focus on Autism We are currently partnering with several community organizations who are providing in- kind seminars and workshops for Autism week at our gallery.The Jordan Lake Center for- Creative Arts is contributing funding to pay for supplies for the exhibition and teaching. FRANK:inFocus,Focus on Photog—raphy For Focus on Photography,our photo consortium,we have hired an independent journalist to host an interactive Web blog,and publicity and marketing.Funding from OCAC will provide additional publicity materials and guest honorarium to enable FRANK to represent and to sustain Orange County's leadership role in community arts. Top Three Challenges for 2014-2015 1- Financial-As a non-profit,our goals embrace community outreach. Our artists alone cannot provide funding and labor for these efforts. Sale of art income is allocated to rent and maintenance.As we grow,we must rent external venues to accommodate larger crowds and experimental or innovative presentation of programs.We hire consultants anci speakers with expertise beyond our membership to meet the needs of our constituents. Marketing costs increase and require innovative design and strategies to grab attention. 2- Internal Resources -We rely heavily on our internal resources to produce all exhibitions and programs.Our single paid staff gallery manager juggles multiple roles of office management including sales,accounting,and marketing while supervising an all- volunteer staff of member artists for assistance in programming and development. Although our artists are deeply committed to educational and community endeavors,we tend to overextend ourselves with volunteer managerial and program tasks,competing with time and energy for our own art production for the gallery sales. 3- Organizational Model in Process-As we continue to evolve as a collective,we redefine our roles and missions for this model_We feel we are a unique model requiring an abundance of commitment,time,energy,and enthusiasm.We rely on the skills of our members and preofessional volunteers to guide us as we progress and grow.

I often do a series of works of the same subject in shifting light, seasons and weather. When painting animals, I usually document their movements in a series of works done on si t, and in their home environments. I visited the Antarctic Peninsula in December 2007 and in .I ul\ 2009 worked in the Norwegian Arctic, As a result of these Polar experiences, I produced a lar,C body of work on Polar animals and landscapes for the multimedia exhibition"Ice CounterpoIIIC at UNC's Fed Ex Global Education Center from January 7 through May 312010 and"Artico.
