Good afternoon commissioners, my name is larry ware. Im the founder of the Poetry Program i started 35 years ago at the Bayview Library and started the African American History Program 40 years ago.

The witness has testified or stated that there wer

So if i have a complaint or questions about how the process was run and clearly the ultimate decision, i would talk to you . Correct. How would i know that if i had not been sitting here talking to you . I think what you are speaking to is an interesting point. If you go back to the statistics, a large number of the plate applicants were first time applicants to the Arts Commission and with the City Arts Grants Program it takes a while for first time applicants to learn the process.
