She thinks they will be able to get a lot of them made if not all nine of them. Commissioner Gunness explained she hasn’t met with the Public Art Working Group since the May meeting when they were on hold. She stated since the Arts & Culture Commission needs to spend $10,000 on public art she asked the commission to think about how they would like to prioritize spending the money. Part of the money has already been committed to pay the artists to keep their pieces of art one more year until it is figured out what will be done next year in addition to not having an empty space there all year. The commissioners asked questions and had a discussion regarding the student art and prioritizing the $8,000 left in the fund. Motion made by Hegley to accept the recommendation from Public Art to allocate the funds to three different categories one is sustaining works already in place for another year for $2,000, two is to negotiate with artists to produce as many of the nine finalists artworks from the school programs as submitted and judged and if any funds remain utilize those in the highest priority of conservation.
