@ WOW...@ Martha Careful

Wow says " there can be culture in the midst of mediocrity". Let the 'Culture Crowd' pay for their own version of culture and quit taking money from the taxpayer for this 'cashbox culture' business.

The Arts and Culture community needs to stand on its own two feet and get off of County Welfare. The worthless Volusia County Cultural Council gave away $610,000 to these culture beggars last year.

Meanwhile....tax paying businesses and individuals are just hanging on.

Taxpayers need to get on the internet and look up their County Councilmembers and protest these giveaways from the Volusia County Cultural Council to these tax exempt culture BUM non profit businesses countywide.

Culture Bum Businesses need to get their claws out of the county treasury permanently, not one dime of taxpayer money should be given to theses culture bums.

WOW says this has created a "ton of business"....good, then get off county welfare..Culture BUMS.
