SPAM] Re: Houlton Building <br />Scott: <br />Thanks for the update. <br />Here is a first go at your questions. Please let me know if any of this is not clear or you need more <br />information. I would be able to attend the Council meeting next week if having someone from the Arts <br />Alliance present would help answer any questions. I do have an internal document that was developed <br />as a business plan for the storefront; with some modifications we could make this available, if deemed <br />required. <br />I will be out of the office November 5-9. <br />A description of what you will use the building for. <br />The storefront will be used by the Arts Alliance as 1) administrative offices; 2) changing art gallery <br />with sales by Arts Alliance members; 3) small meetings and arts programming including lectures, <br />recitals, workshops; This will eventually include daytime programming for seniors, after school <br />programming for young adults, and weekend programming for families; 4) receptions for visiting artists <br />and performers as well as Arts Alliance events. <br />What would be the hours of operation? <br />Office hours are generally 9-4 Tuesday through Friday. <br />Gallery hours will be Tuesday through Friday 11-4 and also include Thursday evenings through 8pm, <br />some Friday evenings, and Saturdays, 11-5. Sundays are a possibility, but are not planned yet. <br />Special events and receptions will be Thursday and Friday evenings, Saturdays. <br />Do you anticipate doing any leasehold improvements at your cost. <br />We anticipate providing partitions for art displays, additional temporary lighting as needed for art <br />displays. Some external signage would also be developed. <br />Will you be providing insurance for yourself? <br />The Arts Alliance will provide liability insurance as required. <br />How long do you want the lease to run for at a minimum? <br />We are seeking a minimum of two years with options to extend a possibility. <br />From our previous discussion, will your organization pay for all utility costs? <br />We will be responsible for utilities in the areas we occupy in the building. <br />10/31/2007 <br />
