Members of WESTAF\u2019s board of trustees met October 23-24 in Denver.

In early 2019, GO Smart partnered with WESTAF\u2019s sister regional arts organization South Arts as it began its inaugural Jazz Road<\/a><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>program. Jazz Road facilitates support to American touring musicians, specifically in the jazz genre. GO Smart services were offered free of charge to South Arts to administer the grant application, run a panel review, and collect final reports. Thirty-one artists<\/a><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>were granted nearly $360,000 in the initial round of funding, with the next cycle of touring support as well as a new initiative supporting residencies launching in early 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n
