SPRING 2012
Strategic Art Grants
Can Make a Visual Impact
The strategic grant from the Arts Council of Anne
Arundel County to Creative Paradox is a collaborative
project with the Chesapeake Children’s Museum. The
Silopanna Sculptural Playground will create a safe space
for children, families and those using nearby trails, to
rest and play adjacent to the Museum located in
Annapolis near Bates Middle School.
The Chesapeake Children’s Museum
www.theccmorg., located at 25 Silopanna
Road, was incorporated in 1994.
What is your strategy
for increasing the
effectiveness of your
organization?
“I wanted these Sculptures to first be works of art,” says
Casey Reed Johnson in his written proposal. “designing
in the functional element of play. I also wanted these
works to describe or allude to forms you may encounter
living by the Chesapeake Bay or being out on the water.”
The new works of art, designed in collaboration with
Campion H. Ruby Landscape Architects, will be
constructed with domestic hardwoods such as Black
Locust, Red Cedar, and White Oak. A maintenance plan
will be created to ensure they last a minimum of 10
years.
“We love to see projects,” says Executive Director April
Nyman, “When two organizations work together to reach
out to serve a larger community,”

The Mission of the Arts Council of

encourage and invest in the visual
arts, performing arts, and historic
preservation for the people of Anne
Arundel County.

On exhibit through

Summer 2015
It has been an active year for
Anne Arundel County Arts
Organizations! We have seen
growth in artistic programming as
well as upgrades and additions to
our arts venues.In order to support
and promote this growth, the Arts
Council has been busy!
Looking back on the past fiscal year, I’m pleased to report our
accomplishments.
Our grants committee created and funded the first set in a new
category of grants – Strategic Impact Grants. Intended for
projects that fall outside of an organization’s regularly
scheduled programming, Strategic Impact Grants allow for a
major change in the way an organization is able to impact the
Arts within the community, and are already proving successful.
We also implemented a web-based grant application process
and have completed two successful rounds of grants
submissions through this system. We’ll continue to streamline
the process for our grantees.
We have also used a variety of media platforms, paired with our
expanding technology, to support the programs of our own
organization and our grantees.
Our arts exhibit program now has developed and implemented
an online registration, application and submission process for
our juried shows. This includes an online artist gallery. A
second exhibit venue is in the works and we hope to debut it
this fall.
Our Outreach Committee presented three programs this year
for grantees and the arts community. These included
interactive presentations on non-profit social media,
funding/grant availability for both organizations and artists,
and a networking event.
It’s been a great year – but we’re not done! Key goals for this
coming year include expanded outreach to county artists, arts
organizations and the community; expanded partnerships with
groups that can promote the arts; and enhanced marketing,
public relations and social media on behalf of our arts
organizations.
Have a great summer… and be sure to enjoy some amazing
local performances and art exhibits while you do!

Make a Difference
STUDENTS LEARN WHILE CREATING MURAL
The remarkable Maryland mural that the 2014-2015 fourth
grade Brock Bridge Elementary School students created includes
local wildlife, landforms, and Native American tools. It is a
wonderful hands-on tool that will enhance students’
understanding of the Anne Arundel County Public School’s
fourth grade social studies curriculum. During the year,
students in fourth grade study the geography, economics, and
history of Maryland. In future years to come, students in all
grades, but especially fourth grade, will be able to use the
Maryland mural to learn and explore our great state.
Sarah Lipphard, teacher
The Arts-in-education program administered by the Arts Council provides opportunities for Anne
Arundel County schools to utilize auditorium programs and artist-in-residence programs to enrich student
curriculum in a variety of ways.
At Brock Bridge Elementary School in Laurel, fourth grade students worked with artist Amanda
Pellerin, to create a mural made of ceramic tiles. Pellerin worked with each social studies class to plan and
design the mural. Together, artist and students created handmade clay tiles that they cut and shaped. After
the tiles were fired in the kiln, each group participated in executing the layout, cementing, and grouting of
the mural.
Says ACAAC Board member Esther Parker, “I'm really excited the Arts Council is able to assist
our educators in putting the "A" in STEM and turning it into STEAM by helping to bring art into our
schools through both residency and artist-in-residence grant funding. Art can enable our students to
sustain learning in many different ways."
