- The NOTCF's role in pooling a percentage of state and local taxes from hotel occupancy into a fund that is used to sponsor cultural events and provide support to artists and musicians; funding music programs in local schools; and literacy training that opens up pathways into businesses for local artists to get lending and mortgages for their businesses
