Art Interest A vase — traditional in design, sophisticated in glaze and texture r— has become in Washington a symbolic representation of North Carolina’s involvement with craft and art. Grace J. Rohrer, secretary of the Department of Cultural Resources, recently presented the vase by potter Mark Peiser of Penland to Vice President Nelson Rockefeller. The vase was given to Rockefeller in recognition of his interest in and support of the arts and to call attention to the proclamation by Gov. James E. Holshouser Jr. of February as “Community Arts Council” month. A number of the state’s 50 arts councils are conducting fund drives this month, ranging from efforts to collect a few thousand dollars to the $225,000 sought by the Win ston-Salem Arts Council. Mrs. Rohrer said that it is through the support of people like Rockefeller, both as governor of New York and as a private citizen, that a climate is set “in which a Mark Peiser not only has the opportunity but en couragement to develop his talents and create an object of beauty.” In North Carolina that climate has been established in many forms in different communities: — In Smithfield, one of four small cities visited by the Artrain last summer, more than 8,000 people went through the train and a total of 10,000 gathered to watch per formances by 30 groups and view exhibits and demon strations by 75 artists and craftsmen. (North Carolina ranked second among Southeastern states in total number of Artrain visitors with 30,952.) — In Hayesville in Clay County with a population of slightly over 5,100, the old county jail has been taken over by a newly-formed historical and arts council to become a community arts center. The council already publishes a calendar of events, maintains a master mailing list, is working on bicentennial planning, has classes in music and dance, and sponsors dance, poetry, music and drama events. — In Charlotte, where a number of organizations have enjoyed substantial com munity supports for years, a relatively new element in community arts funding has been introduced on a large scale through county and city contributions. In 1973-74 Mecklenburg County gave $20,500 to the Charlotte Symphony and $45,000 to the Charlotte Nature Museum. During the same period, the city gave $15,000 to the Symphony, $60,000 to the Nature Museum, $95,000 to the Mint Museum of Art, and $8,500 to the Charlotte Opera Assn. Other forms of government support for the arts have come to local organizations through grants from the North Carolina Arts Council. Hie council receives most of its money from matching ap propriations from the state and the National Endowment for the Arts. The council’s total income was $635,205 for the 1971-73 biennium.
