Rationale
The mission of the Kentucky Arts Council is to create opportunities for the people of Kentucky to value, participate in and benefit from the arts. While we believe that most Kentuckians support state tax dollars creating opportunities to participate in the arts, we have little evidence that the public is aware of the role of the Kentucky Arts Council in providing those opportunities. Both grantees and artists selected to participate in adjudicated programs have a contractual responsibility to work in partnership with the Kentucky Arts Council in identifying state funding and creating public value for the arts.

Usage
The Kentucky Arts Council logo is required to be used by artists, organizations, schools and other entities that receive grant funds, monetary awards or have been accepted into the adjudicated programs of the Kentucky Arts Council. Organizations that are official partners with the lead grant recipient are also required to appropriately credit the Kentucky Arts Council.

Failure to comply will jeopardize future funding from the Kentucky Arts Council.

Organizations that receive operational support funding from the Kentucky Arts Council through the Community Arts Development, General Operating Support I & II, and Challenge Grant programs are required to appropriately credit the Kentucky Arts Council for all program areas, projects and activities of the organization in all communication materials.

The logo and prescribed credit lines will be used on all printed materials including calendars, catalogs, brochures, invitations and event programs; print and TV advertising; marketing and promotional materials; newsletters (print and electronic), TV/Film program credits, Web site home pages (with link to www.artscouncil.ky.gov), signs, posters, billboards and banners.

Exemptions
Credit lines are exempt from postcards 5" x 7" or less and print advertising less than 12 column inches; the logo is not.

Logos are exempt from news releases; radio advertisements and announcements; television, radio and newspaper interviews and curtain speeches. Appropriate credit lines are required when artists, organizations, schools and other entities that receive Arts Council funding use any of these communication methods.
