Stories Throullh Visuals" pr02ram used for "What It Feels Like To LIVE With HIV/AIDS" mural proiect The Project Narrative or Description is a complete description of the proposed project or event as approved by the Grants Panel based on the original application. Please include the number of events, participants, locations and audience to be served. Also, please include a brief statement indicating how this event will be made availabe to the public. NARRA TIVE OR DESCRIPTION In our original application, CFCA proposed to conduct workshops on Miami Beach for two separate, on-going, mural projects: 1) ''What It Feels Like To LIVE With HIV/AIDS" and 2) "All About Crime," This included the facilitation of "Telling Stories Through Visuals" writing and art workshops with members of various Miami Beach community groups and Public Schools; as well as public Mural exhibitions. Based on our original application, the Grants Panel approved Mural exhibitions. Because ''What It Feels Like To LIVE With HIV/AIDS" is a project with national participation, a suitable, easy-access venue will be selected so that the exhibition of this educational work of art is available, free of charge, to the general public, which includes tens of thousands of Miami Beach residents, City visitors and tourists, of all ages, racial, ethnic, and socio-economic backgrounds. Because we are continuously conducting workshops for this project, we will add to the mural prior to public exhibition, the new personal stories and artwork illustrating the feelings and experiences of LIVING with HIV/ AIDS, created by members from local AIDS organizations, hospitals, etc" as well as students from Dade County Public Schools, The entire Mural will be exhibited in a public space, such as the Library, in a lobby of a Bank building, etc. for a minimum of two consecutive weeks per display. Necessary changes in the program (if any) if funding received is less than original request: Because the funding approved by the City of Miami Beach Cultural Arts Council is considerably less than the amount we requested, the change to our original proposal will be to down-size the number of "Telling Stories Ihrough Visuals" workshops held on Miami Beach and, due to the new emphasis placed on the need for AIDS education for youngsters, we have determined that the funds we receive from the Miami Beach Cultural Arts Council would be most appropriately used for the ''What It Feels Like To LIVE With HIV/AIDS" project. We have altered our budget to reflect these changes, NOY-12-98 THU 09:15 STEWART/CFCA 305 534 8807 f'.01 ...., CITY OF l\fIAMl BEACH CULTURAL ARTS COUNCIL EXHIBIT 2: REVISED PROJECT BUDG~T- - A.
