Explanation
(This amendment provides an additional $600,000 the first year from the general fund to the Virginia Arts Festival to create a Center for Education and Community Outreach in downtown Norfolk aimed at elevating the Festival's national stature and resulting in a positive impact on the Hampton Roads region. The creation of this permanent facility will be a major milestone for an event that is already deemed to be one of the American Bus Association's Top 100 events in North America.)
