ACC-Mosaic Collaborative Project
Proposal to Arts & Culture Commission for Public Art event for 2020
What is it?
A virtual gallery: A webpage or website that contains different collections and art pieces.
Collections will include related art pieces, such as a collection of speeches or a collection of art pieces
with a specific focus/theme.
Podcast: The podcast will be dialogue between a member from Mosaic and the artist(s). For example,
the podcast may include a Q and A session as well as conversation with the artist about the meaning
behind their piece and their journey from struggling to healing. This should be available to the public.
Event (tentative): Many commission members have discussed the possibility of having a virtual event to
kick off our project. This could be some sort of live show that is online or broadcasting our first
collection. If it is possible in person, maybe some type of social distanced event/broadcast in a park. We
will need to talk to Mosaic about their thoughts.
Other Information
We will be using the new rubric developed by HRRC to guide our efforts through this process. We will
make sure that lens is applied to all parts of the project, from members involved to the art that will be
incorporated in the virtual gallery.
Commission Mosaic
The commission should play a role as a
supporting force.
Mosaic should be the “face” of this project.
