Sec. 7. (a) This section applies to school corporations in a county containing a city having a population of:
(1) more than one hundred fifty thousand (150,000) but less than five hundred thousand (500,000);
(2) more than one hundred ten thousand (110,000) but less than one hundred fifty thousand (150,000);
(3) more than eighty thousand (80,000) but less than eighty thousand four hundred (80,400);

(5) more than eighty thousand five hundred (80,500) but less than one hundred thousand (100,000).
(b) To provide funding for an art association under this section, the governing body of a school corporation may impose a tax of not more than five-tenths of one cent ($0.005) on each one hundred dollars ($100) of assessed valuation in the school corporation.
(c) The school corporation shall deposit the proceeds of the tax imposed under subsection (b) in a fund to be known as the art association fund. The art association fund is separate and distinct from the school corporation’s general fund and may be used only to provide funds for an art association under this section. The governing body of the school corporation may annually appropriate the money in the fund to be paid in semiannual installments to an art association having facilities in a city that is described in subsection (a), subject to subsection (d).
(d) Before an art association may receive payments under this section, the association’s governing board must adopt a resolution that entitles:
(1) the governing body of the school corporation to appoint the school corporation’s superintendent and director of art instruction as visitors who may attend all meetings of the association’s governing board;
(2) the governing body of the school corporation to nominate individuals for membership on the association’s governing board, with at least two (2) of the nominees to be elected;
(3) the school corporation to use the association’s facilities and equipment for educational purposes consistent with the association’s purposes;
(4) the students and teachers of the school corporation to tour the association’s museum and galleries free of charge;
(5) the school corporation to borrow materials from the association for temporary exhibit in the schools;
(6) the teachers of the school corporation to receive normal instruction in the fine and applied arts at half the regular rates charged by the association; and
(7) the school corporation to expect exhibits in the association’s museum that will supplement the work of the students and teachers of the corporation. A copy of the resolution, certified by the president and secretary of the association, must be filed in the office of the school corporation before payments may be received.
(e) A resolution filed under subsection (d) is not required to be renewed annually. The resolution continues in effect until rescinded. An art association that complies with this section is entitled to continue to receive payments under this section as long as the art association complies with the resolution.
(f) If more than one (1) art association in a city that is described in subsection (a) qualifies to receive payments under this section, the governing body of the school corporation shall select the one (1) art association best qualified to perform the services described in subsection (d). A school corporation may select only one (1) art association to receive payments under this section. As added by P.L.1-2005, SEC.48.
