Carmel Art Association Presents ENTRY RENOVATION, YOUTH COMPETITION/EXHIBITION & ALL-MEMBER SHOW


Mission Statement: 
The Association exists to provide its members with a permanent art gallery, to advance knowledge of, and interest in the arts, and to create a spirit of cooperation and fellowship among artists and the community. 

A Proud Heritage:
The legendary Carmel Art Association was formed on August 8, 1927 by a small group of artists who gathered at “Gray Gables,” the modest home/studio of Josephine Culbertson and Ida Johnson at the corner of Seventh and Lincoln in Carmel-by-the-Sea. These nineteen “pioneers”—who grew up in the 19th century and individually found their respective paths to Carmel from all corners of the world—each desired a greater sense of community, a spirit of collaboration, and a place to show their work. Before the meeting concluded, they had established an association with a mission “to advance art and cooperation among artists, secure a permanent exhibition space, and promote greater fellowship between artists and the public.” 

W/s Dolores St. between 5th Av. & 6th Av.
10:00 A.M. – 5:00 P.M., Daily
Open to the Public at No Charge

Interestingly, a section “Complaints Against Elected Officials” from the REDLINE Version CITY OF CARMEL-BY-THE-SEA CITY POLICY NO. __________HARASSMENT PREVENTION POLICY DRAFT NO. 3 is not included in the passed, adopted and current HARASSMENT PREVENTION POLICY.

CITY POLICY NO. 2012-02
HARASSMENT PREVENTION POLICY

REFERENCE:

VII. MISCELLANEOUS GUIDELINES

2) Complaints Against Elected Officials


This policy applies equally to the Mayor, the Vice Mayor and members of the City Council. Employees who believe they have been harassed by an elected official must follow the complaint procedure previously specified including immediately reporting that behavior to any one of the following individuals: his or her supervisor; the Personnel Officer; the City Administrator; or the Mayor or Vice Mayor.

An investigation will then be undertaken by the Personnel Officer as previously specified. Any employee who files a complaint against an elected official is assured of protection against retaliation by that official under City policies, as well as by state and federal regulations.

If it becomes clear that an allegation against an elected official has substance and an internal resolution is not possible, the complainant will be notified and referred to the state and federal compliance agencies set forth below. This referral will be made because the City has no administrative control over elected officials. Consequently, if remedial action is found to be appropriate, the City would be unable to provide an effective remedy to the complainant.
