Hi Sierra,
Here are two examples from New Hampshire.
Concord: The Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce and Creative Concord have generated a number of public art programs and events on the heels of the city’s Complete Streets renovation. The City’s Complete Streets plan and resulting arts programs was informed, in part, by their participation in the AFTA A&EP survey. https://www.concordnhchamber.com/impact/arts/Keene: The Keene Arts Core project is looking at ways to activate and elevate the arts as part of the streetscape and the immediately surrounding built environment along a targeted section of their Main Street. Currently in planning phase with the support of a Citizens’ Institute on Rural Design (CIRD) grant, the project integrates Complete Streets strategies. https://monadnockartsalive.org/keene-arts-core

Stipends for Advisory Group/Review Panel Participants by Julie Barry (26 Jan 2023 20:28 UTC)
Reply to list
Greetings Arts & Culture Colleagues,
The City of Salem, MA is looking for ways to remove barriers to civic engagement opportunities through exploring the possibility of offering need-based stipends/ honorariums to community members for participating in arts & culture advisory groups and artists selections committees when they are not engaged with these committees as part of their gainful fully time employment. Some of the questions we have are eligibility determination, how do we decide who gets a stipend and who doesn’t and why; as well as how much to offer, a flat rate honorarium or a per hour/per meeting stipend.
We were wondering if there are any other communities out there already doing this and if so, if you might be willing to share any policies or guiding documents that you might have around this.
The goal of course is to be fair, equitable, and transparent in this process and to remove barriers to encourage engagement and participation.
I look forward to hearing the thoughts of this group.
Thank you in advance for your time.

Unless it’s cost prohibitive, why not offer to pay everybody who isn’t getting paid to be there?
If you intend to pay people for their work, offer it to everyone. Some won’t take it, some will. Does it matter?
We offer to pay everyone and we pay a flat honoraria based on $50.00 per hour. Inclusive of travel, if there is any.

We developed a policy that anyone who isn't paid to be there as part of their regular job gets paid for their work, scaled to the amount of effort required, $150-$500. Sadly, we can only do this with projects that are funded by an outside organization when we develop the project funding request and include it as a project expense. For our self-funded projects we have to rely on people who are already paid by another employer, or who have previously told us that we can call on them anytime.JULIA MUNEY MOORE she/her

Hey, Julie!
At Cambridge Arts we determine an honorarium for each committee where we need community participation, e.g. artist selection committees, poetry juries, grant review committees, etc. We pay the same honorarium for all community participants who are not city staff, architect/engineer consultant, or have some other role on the project as part of their job. Different projects have somewhat different scopes in terms of time commitment, so we consider hours required as well as the budget available for the overall project. Often the honorarium is in the $250-400 range.
Another step we’ve taken to increase access is to post a call for participants rather than finding people through our networks. We are finding this a great way to spread the word about the program, to identify community members whom we may never have known about otherwise, and to increase availability of the opportunity more widely.

Hey, Julie!
At Cambridge Arts we determine an honorarium for each committee where we need community participation, e.g. artist selection committees, poetry juries, grant review committees, etc. We pay the same honorarium for all community participants who are not city staff, architect/engineer consultant, or have some other role on the project as part of their job. Different projects have somewhat different scopes in terms of time commitment, so we consider hours required as well as the budget available for the overall project. Often the honorarium is in the $250-400 range.
Another step we’ve taken to increase access is to post a call for participants rather than finding people through our networks. We are finding this a great way to spread the word about the program, to identify community members whom we may never have known about otherwise, and to increase availability of the opportunity more widely.

Unless it’s cost prohibitive, why not offer to pay everybody who isn’t getting paid to be there?
If you intend to pay people for their work, offer it to everyone. Some won’t take it, some will. Does it matter?
We offer to pay everyone and we pay a flat honoraria based on $50.00 per hour. Inclusive of travel, if there is any.

Subject: Stipends for Advisory Group/Review Panel Participants
Greetings Arts & Culture Colleagues,
The City of Salem, MA is looking for ways to remove barriers to civic engagement opportunities through exploring the possibility of offering need-based stipends/ honorariums to community members for participating in arts & culture advisory groups and artists selections committees when they are not engaged with these committees as part of their gainful fully time employment. Some of the questions we have are eligibility determination, how do we decide who gets a stipend and who doesn’t and why; as well as how much to offer, a flat rate honorarium or a per hour/per meeting stipend.
We were wondering if there are any other communities out there already doing this and if so, if you might be willing to share any policies or guiding documents that you might have around this.
The goal of course is to be fair, equitable, and transparent in this process and to remove barriers to encourage engagement and participation.
I look forward to hearing the thoughts of this group.
Thank you in advance for your time.

Julie,
I’m attaching the press release/email that we sent out recently calling for candidates to participate in the poetry selection committee for our annual Sidewalk Poetry contest. For this task, each selection committee member has to read all the submitted poems on their own time and then convene with the whole group for one 3-hour meeting, during which the committee selects five winners. Last year we received 250 poems, so that time commitment entails reading all of those poems on their own schedule (although the poems are short to fit a sidewalk panel). As it says in the call, we are paying each community member $250.
Lillian
