This award stinks to holy hell. So the Sioux Empire arts council (partially funded by taxpayers) gives a Mayor’s award for the arts to the Sioux Falls Parks and Rec (funded by taxpayers).

Outstanding Organizational Arts Advocacy: Sioux Falls Parks & Recreation has made substantial investments in the arts and culture as part of the park and community center programs. Accomplishments include substantial public art and beautification projects, artists’ residencies, live performances, arts camps and programs for children and public art festivals.

A lot back patting apparently was going on last night. Thank gawd I did not attend the award ceremony, you would have heard a big booooooooo from me.

  1. How can I have sour grapes over an award I couldn’t win even if I wanted to?

    “Outstanding Organizational Arts Advocacy”

    Organization NOT individual

    I have been nominated before though.
