the local arts council is a hot mess of prejudice and disfunction
they found the press release for an art grant my friend and I got in JULY and shared it, which is like, hey, thanks, but that was 8 months ago lol
but they left out FOUR local artists and one organization that also received the EXACT SAME GRANT on the EXACT SAME DAY, we all live within five miles of each other.
so I may have politely and publicly called them out on their own post by very nicely...
"Thanks for the shout out! Just wanna chime in and share the other wonderful (town name) artists who also received the (grant name) grant back in July." and listed them off.
I think I was nice?
perhaps I ruined my chance of any more publicity and recognition from the arts council, but I don't want it under these conditions.
