The commission approved five formal items: a revised lower-gallery schedule to allow Landmarks to begin its annual show in December; acceptance of a contemporary indigenous-art exhibit for the lower gallery and approval of a related larger-scale educational event in collaboration with the town’s Diversity and Inclusion Task Force; authorization to participate in Tiburon’s Earth Day activities and a budget not to exceed $1,000 for related materials and programming; a motion to contact and assess availability of three artists for the September–October upper-gallery slot; and adoption of an updated artist information form to standardize exhibition submissions and logistics.

Landmarks scheduling
The commission voted to permit the Tiburon Landmarks group to shift its lower-gallery slot so its annual show can begin in early December. The motion to allow Landmarks to start on or about December 1 passed by unanimous vote. The minutes show the motion and second on the record and the chair called the result “unanimous.” (Vote tally recorded as unanimous; specific mover/second not specified in the transcript.)

Contemporary indigenous-art exhibit and larger event
The commission approved hosting a contemporary indigenous artists exhibition in the lower gallery — proposed for May–June — and separately approved hosting a larger educational event featuring panels, performances and demonstrations in collaboration with the Diversity and Inclusion Task Force. The initial exhibition motion passed in roll-call with votes recorded as “Yes” from Commissioner Faivos, Commissioner Noguez and Chair Gupta. The separate motion to host a larger-scale event passed in a subsequent roll call with affirmative votes recorded from Commissioners Feibush (recorded also as Vibush in the transcript), Farrin and Noguez.

Earth Day participation and budget
The commission endorsed participating in the town’s Earth Day activities with a proposed family-oriented pledge activity at Zelensky Park tied to the town walk. Commissioners approved a not-to-exceed budget of $1,000 for materials, refreshments and related small expenses; a roll-call vote on the motion passed (affirmative votes recorded on the transcript and chair declared the motion moved). Staff noted the commission has approximately $9,000 in a special project fund and about $6,000 in the annual operating budget, while the town’s public-art fund holds roughly $54,000.

Artist exhibitions scheduling
Commissioners agreed to contact three prospective artists — Susan Katz (wildlife photographer and illustrator), Sharon Pastor (abstract painter) and Carla Roth (plein-air landscape painter) — to check availability for the upper-gallery September–October slot. The commission moved and seconded a motion to reach out to the artists and consider their responses at an upcoming meeting; the motion passed in roll call.

Artist information form
Staff presented an updated artist information form intended to standardize submissions, installation/removal dates, reception details and promotional timelines. Commissioners approved implementing the updated form and asked staff to post the form on the town website. The action passed unanimously by roll call.

What commissioners said
Chair Gupta and multiple commissioners emphasized that the commission’s public-art work should prioritize cultural relevance to Tiburon residents and be conscious of site constraints and long-term maintenance. Staff member Marissa explained the updated form will include medium, size and web/social links and suggested a space for artist statements and label specifications. Commissioners also discussed the need to involve schools, volunteer groups and community organizations for events such as the Earth Day activity.

Votes at a glance
- Allow Landmarks to start annual lower-gallery show on/around Dec. 1 — outcome: approved, unanimous (chair declared unanimous).
- Host contemporary indigenous-art exhibit, May–June — outcome: approved (roll-call: Commissioner Faivos, Commissioner Noguez, Chair Gupta voted yes).
- Host larger-scale educational event with Diversity and Inclusion Task Force — outcome: approved (roll-call: Commissioners Feibush/Vibush, Farrin, Noguez voted yes).
- Approve Earth Day participation; budget not to exceed $1,000 — outcome: approved (roll-call recorded; chair moved vote).
- Contact and review three artists for upper-gallery Sept–Oct slot — outcome: approved (roll-call recorded).
- Adopt updated artist information form for exhibitions — outcome: approved, unanimous.

Next steps and fiscal notes
Staff will coordinate follow-up with artists and community partners, post the updated artist information form on the town website and work with the Diversity and Inclusion Task Force on event proposals. Commissioners noted that some future projects (permanent installations or larger-year programming) will require more extensive budgeting and possibly external grant or philanthropic support.

The firm’s presenters, Terry Loring and Sage Loring of Local Edition Creative, described their work as “curation, creative direction management, full service” and said they focus on temporary public-art projects that draw local and regional visitors. “Our first passion probably is public arts,” Terry Loring said, “and we think it’s important for it to be everywhere.”

Commissioners and staff discussed project scope, artist selection and costs. Commissioners emphasized a preference for local artists and community engagement; Chair Gupta noted the town’s current public-art program is oriented toward temporary projects. “At this time, the public art program is focused on temporary exhibitions,” Gupta said, adding temporary work is easier to approve and less costly to maintain than permanent installations.

Local Edition described typical pricing ranges and management fees used in similar Bay Area programs. They said individual works for temporary leasing generally run from about $5,000 to $10,000 per piece depending on size and logistics, and that a $100,000 program budget commonly yields multiple pieces with the firm’s management fee at roughly 30–40 percent. “If you have a budget of a hundred thousand dollars, typically 30 to 40% is all of the labor cost, management cost, and 60% is for all the artwork,” the presenters said.

Commissioners sought specifics about sourcing and visibility. The presenters said they start “hyper locally” and use calls for artists, their existing artist network, and occasional international commissions when a community wants a major PR “splash.” They described their approach as collaborative with city liaisons, economic development offices and arts commissions and said the firm handles insurance, installations and engineering sign-offs when needed.

Several commissioners and staff raised local constraints. One commissioner said Shoreline Park and other areas have property agreements that limit installations and that the commission has limited funds, noting a preference for work that “invite[s] the people that live here to be involved in the selection of the art.” Staff and commissioners also discussed the program’s goals — cultural resonance with residents as well as potential visitor interest — and the logistics of permitting and maintenance for temporary pieces.

Next steps described at the meeting included an internal commission discussion about public-art priorities and potential budgets, and an invitation for Local Edition Creative to submit site-specific proposals and examples tailored to Tiburon. Chair Gupta said he would follow up and requested sample, site-specific works the firm has staged elsewhere. Local Edition offered to provide proposals if the commission has budget interest and to work with Destination Tiburon and town staff on possible funding or grant sources.

The presentation closed with commissioners saying they would consider the firm’s materials and return with questions or requests for proposals. Marissa (staff liaison) and Arjun (staff) were identified as staff contacts to coordinate potential next steps and site visits.","Local Edition Creative presented turnkey public-art services, stressing temporary installations, local artist inclusion and turnkey budgeting; commissioners asked for follow-up proposals and noted limited town funds and community priorities.","actionData","errors"]
