Marion County North-Central Ohio Cultural Heritage Assets Mapping Project CHAMP & Countywide Arts Survey -- Marion Voices CHAMP project was our new major program service for FY2024. The project hosted seven half-day cultural heritage assets mapping sessions across Marion County and produced nine 16-page zine reports based on the participatory mapping sessions. Participants answered question prompts and worked with large custom-designed maps to identify key cultural heritage recreational arts & natural resources in their geographic and cultural communities. Project funds provided stipends to all participants; and also supported an associated Countywide Arts Survey Project & focus group discussions. The project team consisted of a core facilitator assistant facilitator map designer translator & liaisons responsible for outreach in each community hosting a CHAMP session. The project budget also included printing for zines packets maps and project supplies materials. Funds were also received for a planned expansion of the project to a 12-county region of North-Central Ohio in FY2025; planning & research activities began for this regional work in FY2024 & the first allocations of grant funding for these activities also landed in FY2024. NOTE: FY2024 program expenses grants may appear unbalanced due to cross-fiscal year begin & end of project grant disbursement schedule for some major program grants. 133635 67573 Marion Voices in the Schools MVITS Folklife + Cultural Arts Residencies & Associated Folk Arts Educational Outreach.
