  • Part of the requirement for acceptance of application and funding consideration is a reciprocity agreement as stated in the Criteria document. That requires that all funded events prominently display the ArtsSonoma - 2010 logo on any print or press print promotion material for their events, on any web site or social and viral network with a link back to ArtsSonoma.com and that proof of such promotional activities with the inclusion of the ArtsSonoma logo be submitted to the Arts Council before the balance of agreed fundingis paid.

  • The point of the festival in many ways is to bring public focus on the arts with all its multi-faceted variations; To bring power to our sector as a body of much influence beyond our individual efforts. By siting the logo with ubiquity we bring that sense of individual flair paired with sector strength.
