DISCUSSION: The Kennedy Center Imagination Celebration program began in 1977 as an outreach project of the John F. Kennedy Center for the PerForming Arts. It was created to develop arts awareness in school children and an arts alliance between educators, their arts counterparts and the community cultural network. Imagination Celebration Fort Worth, a seed of that program, was created and developed through a partnership between the Fort Worth Independent School District and the community cultural network. Imagination Celebration Fort Worth, Inc. has since become an independent non-profit organization. In most communities the Imagination Celebration programs center on art festivals for young people. In Fort Worth, Imagination Celebration offers a year long program that coordinates and partially funds the educational outreach programs of the leading arts and cultural institutions in our area. All programs are co- curricular and intended not only to enrich students learning experiences, but also to be a direct component of daily classroom curriculum and to relate to the basic elements of learning. Through Imagination Celebration partnerships, a large numbers of students are reached with their first exposure to the arts. Particularly targeted are students with special needs and from lower socio-economic levels. It is proposed that a contract be executed between the City of Fort Worth and Imagination Celebration Fort Worth for the period of October 1, 2006, through September 30, 2007. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Finance Director certifies that funds are available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of the General Fund.
