FROM: Darlene Bradley, Director of Library & Museum Services
SUBJECT: DONATION IN THE AMOUNT OF $1,000 FROM THE HAKKA
FOUNDATION FOR SUPPORT OF THE GILB MUSEUM OF ARCADIA
HERITAGE JURIED PHOTOGRAPHY CONTEST
Recommendation: Accept
SUMMARY
The Hakka Foundation wishes to donate $1,000 to the Gilb Museum to be used for the
Juried Photography Contest prizes over the next four years. Pursuant to City policy, any
donation of $1,000 or more shall be approved by the City Council. It is recommended
that the City Council accept this donation.
DISCUSSION
The Hakka Foundation would like to make a $1,000 donation to be used specifically for
the Juried Photography Contest prizes. All judged and accept ed entries for the contest
will be hung in the final exhibition at the Museum and 1 st, 2nd, 3rd, and honorable
mention winners will be announced at the opening reception.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
The proposed action does not constitute a project under the California Environmental
Quality Act (“CEQA”), and it can be seen with certainty that it will have no impact on the
environment. Thus, this matter is exempt under CEQA.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Gilb Museum of Arcadia Heritage has a very limited budget and generous cash
donations such as this allow for the Juried Photography Contest to award a small prize
to each of its winners this year and three additional years into the future.
