PUBLIC COMMENT POLICY

The California Arts Council is committed to creating a culture of trust and transparency with members of California’s arts and culture community. We have created a public comment policy as a tool to establish community agreements to support the safety of all community participants. 

Spoken or written public comment is intended to address the work of the California Arts Council body or agency only. Community members should not directly respond to their fellow commenters; doing so may result in intervention and redirection by the Council Chair.

We will not accept graphic or obscene comments or submissions, nor do we accept comments that are abusive; hateful on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, religious affiliation, age, or disability; or intended to defame or discriminate against anyone or any organization.
