"The Sports Bra announced it was partnering with QDoc and the Idea Factory to launch an International Women's Sports Film Festival right here in Portland, held at the Judy Kafoury Center for Youth Arts from May 1-3."
"The city auditor released a study on municipal management of funds from the arts tax, stating 'the City has not historically managed the tax effectively' and revealing that the Arts Education and Access Income Tax fund had kept $8.5 million in reserve."
"The auditor's report indicated that the city continues to award more funds to organizations with larger budgets than those with smaller ones, and left measurements for determining improved arts access vague."
