She said the city’s Light at Julliard program will mark its 30th anniversary this year: “it is our thirtieth anniversary this year, which we are really excited about. We expect to announce the bands this month. This will be every Sunday, starting July 27 through August 31.”

Knudson said the city opened a vendor call for the anniversary season and will recruit volunteers for the arts information booth. She reviewed community promotions funding, which she said is open through May 15 for community events occurring between July 1 and June 30, and encouraged groups that support community culture to apply. The Arts and Culture office also reported two concurrent exhibitions at the Findlay Center: an exhibit by artists of Becoming Independent on view through June 18 in the senior wing and a quilt show in the main hall through June 27; staff said some winners from the national arts program will be displayed in the business lounge for the next year.

Knudson reported social-media reach for April (highlighting Facebook and Instagram impressions and link clicks) and noted public reaction to recent installed art, including commentary on decorated Big Belly trash cans and other neighborhood pieces. She listed several upcoming community events where arts activity is involved, including Suenos Market, SoCo Market, Rose Parade, Bike and Block Party, Railroad Square Antique Fair, farmers markets and Pride events.

Committee members asked scheduling questions (for example, whether the Railroad Square Antique Fair date conflicted with other events) and were reminded that staff coordinate installation timing and special-event permitting. Knudson closed by noting these and other programming items will be promoted and that she will return with further details as events and contracts finalize.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","City of Santa Rosa Art in Public Places Committee Regular Meeting - May 5, 2025.","oneSentenceSummary","Arts and Culture staff reported a range of upcoming events and programs, including Light at Julliard’s 30th anniversary Sundays from July 27–Aug 31, vendor and volunteer opportunities, a community promotions funding deadline of May 15, and exhibitions at the Findlay Center through June.","taxTitle","Santa Rosa City, Sonoma County, California","taxId",3913,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6566534,"APPC appoints selection panel for temporary Santa Rosa Public Art Walk; $5,000 stipends, 102 submissions",568,2222000,2790000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3204843-5b8aa88c310230568d8847f1e10c152e&start=2222&end=2790","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3204843-5b8aa88c310230568d8847f1e10c152e/thumbnail_2222000.jpg","/articles/6566534/Santa-Rosa-City/Sonoma-County/California/APPC-appoints-selection-panel-for-temporary-Santa-Rosa-Public-Art-Walk-5000-stipends-102-submissions","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6566534-c8d7fddf86a889ba984e7d0e72515071/orig.mp4?Expires=1771167947&Signature=ZOEMGFXkZw3zk-zfznc2rjQbmqO-wj1afYzYo0XvmBLVgAT49FBTrzPWMSzRBdtCXcVA7lC3CYLMbYpmhOoq5RfAZXY14Ipeoqf-XJFUqSgs~hjYPeTru4mSrFv1OQooKnTyi-jbrK1E3J~m9mdYcB8ACd5ffVHoaOyMEAUmGDE~U6s8vNlpwcznY862318QZ~sKFbzs4YIYgxePObJY2LBF3rJ7ytlX3sZhQTuK07mC5rz3x~v8wrnMNdhzLQrtj-BE7dOUuWbiyUw6vB1h13HFQsWYRVwAc6H25Bm43jCn82imbxoR1bccCj9FycMLPaJrpyD3iHMCp2tYyXPL2g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Art and Public Places Committee appointed committee members Kristen Kiefer and Lisa Fuentes to serve on the selection panel for the Santa Rosa Temporary Public Art Walk, a program to place temporary public artworks in Railroad Square for up to two years. The decision was unanimous.

Meredith Knudson, Arts and Culture staff, described the call for work: “This call was opened, nationally sent to all US based artists, and each artist will be receiving a stipend of $5,000. And that stipend would include, insurance, install, deinstall, travel, etcetera.” Knudson said the program received 102 submissions, mostly from West Coast states but with entries from across the U.S. She said staff and the selection panel will perform virtual scoring (a first round) beginning the following week, then meet in person for final selection in May or June. Staff indicated they hope to bring final selections back to the committee in June and to install works around September, contingent on site approvals and artist availability.

Committee members discussed the project’s goals and logistics: choosing up to 10 artists with several alternates, matching artwork to appropriate downtown sites, scheduling installations around events (including Railroad Square festivals) and ensuring safety for interactive artworks. A public commenter asked what happens to the artwork after two years; Meredith Knudson said the works are artist-owned and will be deinstalled and returned to the artist at the end of the loan period.

The committee moved and unanimously approved the appointment of Kristen Kiefer and Lisa Fuentes to the selection panel. Staff will convene scoring, work with site partners on placement and permits, and return to APPC for final approvals of the selected artworks and contracts.","The Art and Public Places Committee appointed two committee members to a selection panel for a temporary Public Art Walk (Railroad Square), received 102 submissions, and set a selection schedule with virtual scoring and an in-person final round ahead of a planned September install window.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6566539,"Santa Rosa committee approves Brookwood mural by ArtStart",1392,799000,2191000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3204843-5b8aa88c310230568d8847f1e10c152e&start=799&end=2191","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3204843-5b8aa88c310230568d8847f1e10c152e/thumbnail_799000.jpg","/articles/6566539/Santa-Rosa-City/Sonoma-County/California/Santa-Rosa-committee-approves-Brookwood-mural-by-ArtStart","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6566539-06e5b5d5a1aae248c47d90fb56d70dc5/orig.mp4?Expires=1771167947&Signature=jLz88aFl2muDVQfeYyG0mB4X5rjU7~3KCcuigATAfVf9wboibZbXK8zVrKtut94JTLNoEsIQKiIvBPWWbjPRRy-kl2bJT0Jz8C2I208XdAjqz3lR-UBw9wzwFq~0eOXTwzsJo0AfvI8gAtGZ8o7MKuTNtB5Ga2tXfiLJ6WZSJJV6KYaVkTTIdf-DSFFplBlMdscRekpJaqq6vc1fWNaJc~e09ucVaplO9lh2zCw~U4UVzx2tr8-JjRDb4hBmZblJfeuVg12g6gxnT3EIhdXgLRfDj8QYHu0wu1iUb0ANlnxm-Klut-FrVV3xox80QagMXBqWUIa1jcdWQ1r0IZCMQw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Art and Public Places Committee of the City of Santa Rosa voted 4–1 to approve ArtStart’s Brookwood Mural Project, a proposal to apply painted polytab (fabric) panels and occasional painted board elements to a long corrugated steel fence on Brookwood Avenue.

The committee’s decision followed a presentation by a representative of ArtStart describing the site and materials. “It's a corrugated steel wall, on Brookwood Avenue, where the lease department parks their cars,” the presenter said, and described using a flexible fabric (polytab) painted off-site by youth participants and then adhered to the fence. The presenter said the design emphasis would be colorful, high-contrast roses — a locally recognized symbol — and that the mural would be designed to read quickly from passing cars.

Committee members and the review panel discussed the project’s merits and limits. Committee member Nathan Azadarian raised a substantive reservation about context: “My reservations are related to the questions of militarization of civic infrastructure and the extent to which public art can be called upon to, make that more palatable.” Other members and review-panel representatives — including persons from the Police Department who participated in the selection review — said they supported youth engagement and saw value in softening the fence’s visual impact. Meredith Knudson, Arts and Culture staff, and committee members said the review panel’s deliberations had been earnest and that the project was recommended for approval.

The committee noted practical constraints: the presenting artist said there was not a large installation budget and that the polytab approach allowed youth to work in a safer, supervised location rather than along a busy street. Panel members discussed design choices to break up the long fence line with varying sizes of painted roses and some raised board elements to create visual undulation along the 200–255-foot stretch described in the presentation.

The motion to approve the committee recommendation passed 4–1. The project was described as an opportunity to involve youth in production, to improve a visually unwelcoming block, and to install a durable, removable treatment rather than a painted-on solution. Committee members said final design details will be refined with the artist and staff before installation.

The committee did not set a firm installation date during the meeting; staff indicated next steps include final design drawings, site coordination with the departments that manage the fence, and contracting with the artist and ArtStart for production and installation.","The Art and Public Places Committee voted 4–1 to approve ArtStart’s Brookwood Mural Project, a plan to apply painted polytab panels and decorative elements to a long corrugated fence on Brookwood Avenue and involve youth in production and installation.","actionData","errors"]
