      Council Member Rivera inquires about the funding structure of the B-Side program at Carnegie Hall. David Freudenthal, the government relations director, explains the program's costs and current funding challenges.

      • Program costs about $330,000 directly, doubled when including staff costs
      • About two-thirds of the program is not directly funded
      • Carnegie Hall faces structural deficits, putting unfunded programs at risk
