IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS ALONE, THIS HAS INCLUDED PARTICIPATORY INSTALLATIONS - SHORT-TERM, LONG-TERM, AND PERMANENT - AT THE SAN DIEGO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, THE SAN DIEGO MUSEUM OF MAN, MARKET CREEK PLAZA IN SOUTHEAST SAN DIEGO, THE EAST AFRICAN CULTURAL CENTER IN CITY HEIGHTS, AND MANY OTHERS. FEE-FOR-SERVICE:AJA ALSO CONTINUED TO MAINTAIN OUR FEE-FOR-SERVICE PROGRAM REVENUE STREAM CREATED LAST FISCAL YEAR. THIS MODEL HELPS TO SUPPLEMENT OUR GRANT AND CONTRIBUTION REVENUE THROUGH PARTNERSHIP WITH VARIOUS LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS TO DIRECTLY FUND A PORTION OF AJA'S PROGRAMS AND/OR PUBLIC ART PROJECTS.
