What a game!

Did you know the Knox County Schools only has one person working about half of their time working on grant proposals? A grant writer can generally bring in 15 to 20 times their salary.

If our 19 Commissioners were to surrender 50% of their Discretionary Fund, we could fund another full-time grant writer, probably bringing in another $1 million in for school programs.

Or maybe we could just add it to this round of the budget?

The works exhibited were chosen from Arrowmont’s permanent collection which includes examples by some of the nation’s finest craft artists working in wood, metal, ceramic, glass, and other media. All the artists represented in the exhibition have taught classes at Arrowmont. The school is an internationally known visual arts complex located in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, which serves as a cultural and educational center for visitors and students of all ages and backgrounds.
