7A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • MONDAY, APRIL 27, 2015 Oregon Cultural Trust looks to record grant-making By STEVE FORRESTER Capital Bureau Nineteen months after the blood-letting at the Oregon Arts Commission and Oregon Cultural Trust, new initiatives are apparent, and the Trust an- ticipates a record high in grant making. The OAC is a low-budget, high-impact agency. The Trust — created by statute in 2001 — was an offshoot of the Arts Commission. No other state has an arts and culture fund- ing program like the Oregon Cultural Trust, whose revenue comes from tax credits and cus- tom license plates arts administrator. and whose giving Under Rogers’ is spread across the aegis the OAC has state. held 14 listening The December sessions around Or- 2013 drama within egon.

Operating support grants now will be made on a two-year cycle, instead of ask- ing an organization to apply every year. The commission’s membership has also become noticeably more culturally and racially diverse. Governors are critical to the direction of arts and culture in state policy. John Kitzhaber signed the statute creating the Cultural Trust. Ted Kulono- goski’s wife Mary Oberst, was especially supportive of arts and culture. Gov. Kate Brown inherits Kitzhaber’s budget, which makes no increase in funding for the OAC. In a state- ment to Oregon Capital Insider, Brown reasserts her support for arts and culture and her ap- preciation for what they do for the economy. Kendall Clawson is Gov. Brown’s liaison to the OAC and Cultural Trust. During a period of budget distress, the Cultural Trust be- came target. Eight years after creating the Trust, the Legis- lature swept $1.8 million from the Trust’s principal. That theft still rankles state Sen. Betsy Johnson who says: “Had I not been a legislator, I would have sued over violation of donative intent.” Johnson adds: “We have a moral obligation to give it back to the Trust.” Johnson said that bills in the Legislature would give the Trust “more administrative ÀH[LELOLW\´ The Trust’s corpus stands at $25 million. ODOT has issued 124,757 Cultural Trust license plates. Giving to the trust has grown by 4 percent over the past few years (last year $4.3 million). As a result, the Trust board will increase its giving by 4 percent over the $1.8 million it gave last year. 7KLV VWRU\ ¿UVW DSSHDUHG LQ WKH 2UHJRQ &DSLWDO ,QVLGHU newsletter.

By The Daily Astorian ERICK BENGEL — EO Media Group Cannon Beach’s version of Hands Across the Sand took place April 19 in front of Haystack Rock, Day No. 9 of the city’s Twelve Days of Earth Day celebration. Hands Across the Sands of Cannon Beach CANNON BEACH — In front of Haystack Rock on April 19, North Coast residents joined hands for 15 minutes of pro-ocean solidari- ty during Cannon Beach’s “Hands Across the Sand,” one of the city’s Twelve Days of Earth Day events. Their statement: to draw a line in the sand, physically and metaphor- ically, against offshore oil drilling, deepwater drilling, offshore seismic testing and other practices viewed as environmentally unsafe. Nothing of that nature has taken place off of Cannon Beach’s shores, and Cannon Beach-ers want to keep it that way. Hands Across the Sand — an in- ternational observance where people gather to support renewable energy and energy independence — began in 2010 after the BP Oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Cannon Beach has observed it for the last few years. This month’s event was led by Christen Allsop, owner of Cannon Beach Yoga Arts, who instructed the 12 participants on ujjayi breath- ing. Another Hands Across the Sand in Cannon Beach is scheduled for May 16, as part of the worldwide Hands Across the Sand event.
