Ana, Community Development Agency 20 Civic Center Plaza, Santa Ana, CA 92701 Dear Ms. Le, I am writing on behalf of Santa Ana Unified School District's Ails Department to express our interest in applying for the Graffiti Arts Program grant. Our proposed program aims to bring awareness of the downtown murals as well as various nmral styles, media, and techniques. As you are aware, Santa Ana is a city rich in cultural heritage and artistic expression. The murals located throughout oar downtown area are a testament to the creativity and vibrancy of our community. However, many of these murals go unnoticed by the public, and we believe that through the Graffiti Arts Program, we can shed light on these amazing works of art and inspire the next generation of artists. Our program will be aimed at high school students in the Santa Ana Unified School District. We plan to provide hands-on workshops where students will learn about different mural styles, media, and techniques, including graffiti art. Through these workshops, students will have the opportunity to develop their artistic skills and express their creativity in a positive and constructive way. We also plan to take students on walking tours of the downtown area, where they will be able to view and learn about the various murals. This will not only give students a better understanding of the history and cultural significance of these murals, but it will also allow them to see the potential of mural art in their own communities. We believe that our Graffiti Arts Program will be a valuable addition to the Santa Ana community, and we are excited about the possibility of partnering with the City of Santa Ana and the Community Development Agency to make it a reality. We are committed to providing an enriching and educational experience for our students, while also promoting the beauty and cultural significance of the downtown murals. Thank you for your consideration of our grant proposal. We look forward to the opportunity to collaborate with the City of Santa Ana and make a positive impact on our community. Sincerely, Robyn MacNair SAUSD Arts Coordinator Santa Ana Unified School District / Lindsey Barfield SAUSD Ails Program Specialist Santa Ana Unified School District Services Provided Overview: The Community Development Agency intends to partner with the Santa Ana Unified School District to develop the Graffiti Arts Program (GAP), focusing on the top floor of the 420 N.

Over the course of the program, these mural artists will teach students how to research, design, and install large public art murals. The final products will be covered in an anti -graffiti coating to protect them from both unwanted markings and UV rays. By exposing students to painting and learning through the arts, GAP will achieve significant developmental youth outcomes, reduce youth participation in unsafe activities, and combat the teen dropout rate.
