All,
Mayor and Council Members,
We are in support of approving of a Two-year Agreement with Silicon Valley Creates for an
Amount Not-to-exceed $50,000 for Funding the "Elevate Gilroy Through the Arts" Program.
This partnership will strengthen one of our City Council goals, and partnership with the Gilroy
Art’s & Culture Commission, Gilroy Arts Roundtable, and SV Creates. It will show the region
that we recognize the crucial role of arts, culture, and creativity in the lives of everyone. While
recognizing that the arts and creativity support student success and lifelong learning, provide
key job skills, and bring joy to our community while strengthening our connections. We ask for
your support.
Most Sincerely,
Marilyn
