Jacksonville Jaguars Partner with Cultural Council to Raise Money for Grants

5/6/2021

0 Comments

 
By: Jacksonville Business Journal
The Cultural Council of Greater Jacksonville is auctioning off 20 footballs painted by local artists and signed by Jaguars players as a way to raise money for grants, events and other purposes.
The idea is the brainchild of Adriel Rocha, a Cultural Council board member who is the Jaguars community relations manager: 20 footballs, dipped in white paint, were given to five local artists to decorate as they saw fit.
“Ranging from abstract to realism, each work specifically or figuratively represents our Jaguars team and our City,” said Cultural Council Executive Director Diana Donovan said in a statement. “The ARTS + Sports collaborative partnership showcases Jacksonville's creative economy, igniting a merger of artists and athletes, to bring a fresh perspective to a quality of life we all share, as well as a commitment to serving our city together as a team of equity driven placemakers.”

Strategic Voices: Diana Donovan: Cultural Council of Greater Jacksonville

4/28/2021

By Will Brown  –  Reporter, Jacksonville Business Journal
Diana Donovan is not from Northeast Florida, but the new executive director of the Cultural Council of Greater Jacksonville likes to say she is of Jacksonville. 
The Jacksonville University alumna remained in the River City after graduating, first working at her alma mater, then transitioning to former Mayor Alvin Brown’s administration. Last fall, she went from serving on the Cultural Council’s board to becoming its interim executive director following the departure of Joy Young. In March, she was promoted to Executive Director. 
Donovan discussed her new role with the Business Journal. The conversation was edited for clarity and context.
