2017 Graphics Arts and Textiles Budget Vote (view source)

The Arts and Crafts area covers a wide range of fine art, crafting, artisan and digital media. Typically given a smaller budget and having not used its entire budget from 2012 to current, now would be a good time to expand and enhance the area by providing various high quality fine art equipment and tools for higher tech digital media applications. Proposed acquisitions are given below with notes.
The Arts and Crafts area covers a wide range of fine art, crafting, artisan and digital media. Typically given a smaller budget and having not used its entire budget from 2012 to current, now would be a good time to expand and enhance the area by providing various high quality fine art equipment and tools for higher tech digital media applications. Proposed acquisitions are given below with notes.
While 2016 is not yet reconciled, so the values provided might not be final, Graphics Arts and Textiles actually spent $210.27 in 2015 and so far has allocated $681.43 for 2016. 2016 Q3 expenses are currently $352.87. For the purpose of understanding how this might relate to 2017 budgeting, the Treasurer recommends adding 10% to this 2016 value at the very least, as there may be some expected end-of-year expenditures from area hosts not included in these values, beyond the usual flux from managing the occasionally lengthy accounting processes that might make these Quickbooks-based data points, slightly off from reality. Additionally, keep in mind that mid year we took on the space expansion, but even the Q3 numbers provided here, do not really show any sort of expected usage of a given area for 2017. It may be wise to factor in at LEAST a 50% or so increase in the numbers here before trying to extrapolate for 2017.. To put it simple, take the numbers for 2015 and 2016 provided at the start of this paragraph and multiply x 1.5, or take this number, the Q3's not yet reconciled figures for spending and multiply by 4 for expanding to a year and then again by 0.5 to minimally account for the average 2x growth in physical size of each area as a result of taking on the rest of the building.
