Lengthy discussion on timing of 2023 Banners as Staff is promoting a major shift to the Art Banner timing in order to establish a banner schedule and insert another “round” of existing annual rollout; Commission is adamant that the display timing of the Art Banners not be altered It cannot be stated strongly enough, nor frequently enough, how opposed the Commission is to altering the scheduling of the Summer Art Banners. The banners are FOR the community and OF the community with a strong following FROM the community. The Commission’s stance is that to shift them from the summer months would be leveling a significant blow TO the community. c. Summer 2023: Andy Warhol “PopCan” Initiative i.

Additional ideas to further expand project to include other products in a “Warhol” presentation, especially recognized Hispanic products for cultural inclusion following a key point on missed cultural opportunity with Frida Kahlo exhibit and perceived enthusiastic backing of Andy Warhol exhibit; special note: careful consideration will need to be taken in light of copyright infringement with recognized consumer products d.

As of Monday, January 29, the 2023 Art Banner Exhibit has had 29 entries with 67 total submissions. The deadline for submittal is Tuesday, February 15 with a final promotion for entries occurring the week of February 6. Provided are tentative timelines to see the project through installation prior to the City’s Blooming Fest event on Saturday, May 20. At this time, the Commission needs to 1) approve a project timeline, and 2) delegate roles to members to assist with the Selection, Design, and Production Phases of the project. Staff recommends delegating two members per phase to assist. City staff members will coordinate the Installation Phase, and all digital updates on the City’s website. The Commission’s staff liaison will provide support in all aspects of the project as needed. i. Project Timeline 1. Artwork Deadline: Tuesday, February 14 2.

Summer 2023: Andy Warhol “Popcan” Initiative a. In December 2022, members of the Commission presented a proposal for a public art project that will involve decorating trashcans throughout the downtown area. The project will coincide with a larger City initiative that will decorate the downtown area with aspects of the pop art culture, primarily artist Andy Warhol, through the summer months. After further investigation, City staff concluded that the project could not proceed due to the variations of garbage cans in the downtown area. Further, looking into the usage of steel drums as the substrate was considered, but with time constraints and complexity of completing such a project through the Commission would be difficult to accomplish. With this understanding, staff has researched another option that would correlate with the original concept, but would involve smaller 20 Gallon ‘fiber drum’ cans that could still have the same anticipated results. If interested, the Commission could proceed with developing this concept. Photos have been provided within this packet. ===== PDF PAGE 4 ===== [Extraction: embedded PDF text] The Commissions also discussed a “Warhol” presentation that recognized Hispanic products for cultural inclusion into the upcoming theme. The Commission may also choose to proceed with this concept. Ultimately, should the Commission wish to participate in the upcoming summer “Warhol” themed displays there is time to consider options, but direction is needed. 3. Commission Meeting Time a. During the December 2022 meeting, members of the Commission discussed schedules and requested an attempt to change the times of meeting be considered. A suggestion to move meetings to the second Thursday of the month was added. A final vote from the Commission is needed to proceed if this is the formal request. ===== PDF PAGE 5 ===== [Extraction: OCR (rendered-page OCR)] Fiber Drum - 20 Gallon “ More Images Safely ship and store dry or solid products. ® Steel rings reinforce top and bottom. « Locking steel band accepts a tamper-evident seal. e Metal cover. « FDA compliant materials. « Liner included. | PRICE EACH oan.o | mua) IN STOCK CAPACITY ron [eam] cazsc® | mame | Te [| Tobe rer1e77 | 20 Gatien | 300 verviaws| 9 | s20 | sae | sas [@—T[a00]| =| Additional Info DIMENSIONS: * Circumference: 50.24" * Diameter: ® Opening (inside): 15" ® Inside: 15 1/2" © Qutside: 16" = Height @ Inside: 24 3/4" ® Outside: 25 1/2" MATERIAL: * Drum Bottom: Fiberboord COMPATIBILITY: © Clear $2056 ® Block: $-5111 FEATURES: ® Con be used for export.
