MARCH - Misc. Co m ments/Q uesti ons/Feed back:
• A touchpoint on strategic initiatives in the plan,and how our agenda items action them.Continued enhancements to the financial reports.
• I think we can do more if the staff has assignments or a backlog of things they can never get to.
• The staff and board all function very well.But I don't see much discussion of our strategic plan and the goals it lays out for us.I'm also unclear about the
requirement mentioned in question C.7.Which programs?Please talk about these points in an upcoming meeting.
• 1 really enjoy being on the board and feel that my time is respected and well-spent in advocating for the arts through the SLCAC. Its also great getting to know and
work with this diverse group of community members who share similar passions.
• I am the newest board member,but filled out the survey with my very limited experience in mind.
• I enjoy serving on the board,and I am proud of the amazing work the board is doing.
• I'm really new so I don't have a lot of experience yet but I am very impressed with how professional the Arts Council and the Board operate!
• Focus on improving the lives of artists in Salt Lake City.
• I'd be interested in an introductory packet to the Board/SLCAC,and would be happy to volunteer my time to creating one for future Board members
• Sometimes the meetings are so packed with information,and they move along so quickly that it feels difficult to interrupt with questions or comments.Often,
staff will stop and ask for questions,which is much appreciated,but(for me)it's sometimes long after the topic that I had a question/comment about.:)
• For those of us who don't have prior experience as members of a nonprofit board,I recommend a more thorough,in-person training,or perhaps an online
workshop.I wish I knew more about what was expected of me,the role I have(where it begins and where it ends,especially for responsibilities outside of my
committee),and especially advice on how to meaningfully contribute to discussions of budget. I look at the budget sheet and it's so big and has so many
elements,I don't even know what I'm supposed to be looking for and advising on. I also wish there were more dedicated opportunities for advocacy for the district
I represent,such as discussing where my district falls short in the strategic plan,and what I recommend for short-term planning to help it catch up.
• The board meetings are more engaging and worthwhile when board members have an opportunity to engage in discussion about challenges and opportunities,
rather than just the meetings that are reporting out from staff.A balance of both is important.
I feel that the board and staff are amazing,and I very much look forward to all of the wonderful work you will continue to do for our community.
1 have loved my time on the Arts Council Board.
OCTOBER - Misc. Co m ments/Questi ons/Feed back:
• Unfortunately I haven't been unable to attend all SLCAC events this year because of my schedule, but next year I will plan ahead and plan to
be more engaged. Also, Felicia is amazing,couldn't ask for a better ED!
• Our last meeting was great and allowed time for discussion. I know there's always a lot of info to cover, but when there are fewer things on
the agenda, it allows board members time to process and discuss issues,which I think is a really positive thing!
• I love the social and engagement aspect of the board. Felicia does a great job of ensuring that relevant detail is given to the board in a
digestible manner.
• I still think we need to encourage more discussion amongst board members on divisive issues,e.g.Twilight,SEG,etc.. Given that many of
us are still learning the ropes of how Board's work in general,especially this one, it is easy to feel the imposter syndrome and wonder how
to speak up in a meeting. I appreciate the arts discussion, but I think that time would be better spent getting actual input from Board
members on the issues of the day,and empower people to speak, rather than simply listing how many events you were able to attend in a
given month. Especially considering many of us report on things we did OUTSIDE of SLC.That's fun, but in my opinion only tangentially
relevant to our mission of promoting arts WITHIN the city boundaries.
• I am proud to be on the Board and love the engagement around our city/community.
• I'm happy to be of service as a board member.
• 1 think we as board members should be given assignments and then report on them to increase responsibility,engagement and interest.
• Where I ranked us down in this survey, as I did last year,was in questions related to the strategic plan and goals. I don't ever hear us talking
about them,and while there are wonderful reports on what all the council is doing, it isn't pointed out how they align with the strategic plan
and any goals we are(supposedly)working toward. I am NOT saying that they are not in alignment with the plan and the goals--I'm just
saying that we don't discuss and make reference to the plan in such a way that we see how the work applies to it. I would appreciate the
opportunity to go through the plan (either in one meeting or split out among several, if need be) and then have regular(quarterly, perhaps?)
brief references back to it where we can see how we are doing in meeting the quantifiable objectives.
• I have particularly found the thorough and honest coverage of the SEG entertainment district and the Twilight concert series issues to be
examples of how incredibly conscientious SLCAC is in regard to its mission and the population it serves.
Again, thank you for taking the time to populate this survey.
Your feedback is critical in helping the Arts Council, Board,
and Arts & Culture community work as efficiently and
effectively as possible.
We appreciate YOU!
