BACKGROUND In 2024, DuMA will celebrate its 150th anniversary as a staple of the City's artistic heritage and an integral center of local and regional culture. As a key arts leader in Dubuque, DuMA stimulates lifelong learning and engagement with the arts, attracts tourists and artistic talent to the state, and offers visitors and residents exciting, multidimensional experiences that make living, learning, and doing business in lowa rewarding and fulfilling. DuMA's high standards of operational, managerial, and fiscal perFormance have resulted in earning a coveted designation as a Smithsonian Affiliate in 2016 — an honor awarded to fewer than 10% of museums nationwide. DISCUSSION With this foundational base in place, DuMA unveiled a capital campaign for a new, reimagined space in 2019. The plan includes acquiring a new site to house a wider range of collections and activities to facilitate growing community involvement, tourism, and integration with other cultural organizations across the region. To date, the campaign has raised $3.1 million and is wrapping up an operational feasibility study that details the construction plan and strategic use of space to meet evolving community needs prioritizing social interactions and positioning the Museum as an integral partner supporting the City's master plan and vision for the future. DuMA has applied to the IDEA Nonprofit Innovation Fund for $3M, to support portions of the Phase I into Phase II pieces as highlighted below, with an overall budget for the project estimated at $9M+: • Operational feasibility with construction plan, use of space, cost (2022) • Site identification/acquisition (2022-2023) • Site demolition, preparation (2023) • Construction Phase I (2023-2024) • Construction Phase II (2024-2025) DuMA's overall activities and programs directly support City of Dubuque Goals 2026 to cultivate "Diverse Arts, Culture, Parks, and Recreation Experiences and Activities". Their timely efforts to grow and development the impact and footprint of their organization align with the City's Arts & Culture Master Plan objective to `rightsize facilities to meet capacity needs for rehearsal, exhibition/performance, education and administration'. DuMA requested a letter of support for its application from the City. This support is required by the IEDA. Attached is the letter provided to DuMA supporting their efforts. BUDGET IMPACTS There is no budget impact associated this letter of support. RECOMMENDATIONS I recommend City Council approval of the attached letter of support.

The Museum is one of Dubuque's treasures. As the oldest cultural institution in the state of Iowa, the proposed project is monumental for the Museum, the city of Dubuque, and the tri-state region. DuMA's plan for expansion is a bold vision and investment in the cultural sector at large. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, DuMA has reimagined its place within the community and articulated the Museum's long-term value proposition through this capital campaign project. The project is strongly tied to the opportunities defined by the City's master plan for arts and culture and strengthening and expanding economic and community vitality. As you know, a transformational project of this scope requires significant resources and time to fully complete. Arts and cultural organizations in Dubuque rely heavily on local philanthropy, which draws from a small number of sources. I sincerely hope that IEDA will lend its support now at this critical juncture as the work transitions from Phase I into Phase II of the overall project timeline. Thank you for your consideration and for all the work that you do to ensure that Iowa retains its competitive advantage as a place of vibrancy and prosperity.

DuMA's strategic plan, developed during the pandemic, is without State informed by feedback from diverse community voices including local and national arts, funding: education, and humanities leaders, guests, volunteers, and Museum leaders. This plan and stakeholder input positions DuMA as a leading arts and culture institution in the state and one of the first capital construction projects of its kind to fully address issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion through reimagined shared community spaces. The scale of need in this community for increased dialogue, understanding, and shared experiences among people of different generations, backgrounds, beliefs, and perceptions exceeds the capacity of any single institution. State funding also helps new investors see the projecYs diverse impacts,from attracting new employees to the area, retaining talent, and drawing tourists,to providing an environment in which families can grow and thrive.

As one of Dubuque's anchor arts and cultural institutions, the proposed building redevelopment project is of momentous scale and scope for our community, the state of lowa, and the visitors they serve. The Museum's capital campaign project is aligned with our shared goals of strengthening economic and community vitality. According to the City's Arts & Culture Master Plan, art institutions deliver more than $45 million in annual economic impact to our community.Where many organizations across the country have scaled back programming as a result of the pandemic, DuMA has refined its mission and vision through a community- driven strategic planning process and in-depth operational feasibility study, both of which demonstrate the significant need for a space that meets the evolving needs of their constituents. Furthermore,this capital project strongly fulfills deliverables laid out in the city's master plan for arts and culture; this is a bold and transformational project. Now more than ever,we lean on arts and culture as key economic drivers that connect diverse populations, enhance our overall quality of life, and assist in efforts to attract and retain talent to our city. The vision DuMA has articulated is supported by the Dubuque business community and worthy of investment from IEDA. The benefits from state-level involvement are enduring and reciprocal. Thank you for your consideration and for all the work that you do to ensure that lowa continues to lead as a place for innovation, resiliency, revitalization, and economic advantage.

The Museum is one of Dubuque's treasures. As the oldest cultural institution in the state of Iowa, the proposed project is monumental for the Museum, the city of Dubuque, and the tri-state region. DuMA's plan for expansion is a bold vision and investment in the cultural sector at large. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, DuMA has reimagined its place within the community and articulated the Museum's long-term value proposition through this capital campaign project. The project is strongly tied to the opportunities defined by the City's master plan for arts and culture and strengthening and expanding economic and community vitality. As you know, a transformational project of this scope requires significant resources and time to fully complete. Arts and cultural organizations in Dubuque rely heavily on local philanthropy, which draws from a small number of sources. I sincerely hope that IEDA will lend its support now at this critical juncture as the work transitions from Phase I into Phase II of the overall project timeline. Thank you for your consideration and for all the work that you do to ensure that Iowa retains its competitive advantage as a place of vibrancy and prosperity. Sincerely, �,(�� w+��'�'� Mike Van Milligan City Manager City of Dubuque Signature affixed by J.

The four motivators for cultural participation include having fun,interest in new content, experiencing new things,and feeling less stressed. Locally,the interest is for increased diversity,cultural exposure,and opportunities for the community to gather.Dubuque focus group participants were dissatisfied with the limited opportunities to learn about different cultures.
