A caretaker named Nancy provided a donation letter stating Bill’s desire to gift the work to the commission for the town’s permanent public-art collection. Commissioners outlined four primary next steps: (1) prepare an acceptance letter to present to the trustees, (2) coordinate insurance and maintenance commitments with the donor’s representative, (3) determine the installation location and base details in consultation with Third Street Center and public works, and (4) arrange transportation and installation logistics.

Commissioners discussed plaque options and costs: an initial vendor estimate for a 10-by-10-inch brass plaque was about $320 for a basic plate, with photographic etching likely to add to that cost; a 6-by-6-inch plaque was cited at about $150. Commissioners also suggested including a QR code on plaques to link to artist pages.

On process, commissioners agreed the commission must recommend acceptance to the Board of Trustees; town staff confirmed trustees’ meeting dates where an acceptance could be scheduled (the 24th was noted as the earliest available meeting, with a following meeting July 8). Transport and installation could require a crane or boom truck and possibly outside contractors; commissioners discussed a previously made motion that authorized acceptance of donations with a cost limit (a prior motion to accept a donation with a $15,000 cost cap was cited). Commission members agreed to meet with Lori (town staff) to compile required paperwork and estimate transportation and installation costs. If accepted by trustees, the work will be installed on town property and insured accordingly.

Commissioners volunteered to draft the acceptance letter and meet with town staff and the donor’s representative to coordinate timing and installation details.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Carbondale Public Arts Commission June 11, 2025 Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","Commissioners began planning to accept Bill's donated sculpture 'Insane Cycle' for permanent display on town property; steps include drafting an acceptance letter, contacting the donor's caretaker, arranging transport and installation, and preparing a plaque.","taxTitle","Carbondale, Garfield County, Colorado","taxId",61895,"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},6536229,"CPAC reviews Art Walk: attendance, budget, mic issues and damaged ceramic sculpture",1449,486000,1935000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3804929-d60f154832830c48d469304822855aa6&start=486&end=1935","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3804929-d60f154832830c48d469304822855aa6/thumbnail_486000.jpg","/articles/6536229/Carbondale/Garfield-County/Colorado/CPAC-reviews-Art-Walk-attendance-budget-mic-issues-and-damaged-ceramic-sculpture","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6536229-8b710ff438496e3a479bb293bbb05d79/orig.mp4?Expires=1770566603&Signature=ZYzvd-RiAa6KGUtzSRho~d1LBdMnC3gGBjlHf5sbgCT8TQx9mP-muCCqCRb0Jhnr9i~Gk6cdlS2drOb4ewDUHQL0i-8O0Fjz204YuKhR~sME6at0qx7dW500spoXQeyt~NqXRDoPAltMyOo3XTl2ch-QaeNlRIm75PVJNDzC0BEwNwaVbCChiyM8ZyR1HtPkpe4dg9GHQxGWHWiDUpxouVg8OctkOq6TSbnQJ3ZHV5YjDajK0IuZo~9ts6XK9ubapy62RDLRjGluIg0fV0lzbbrni2nhc-nZlzXkNUNjlbxzNs3mWGqVRyW-UXcF~NktT7GTVPZ8i2uT8W3f6JkEsg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Members of the Carbondale Public Arts Commission at their June meeting reviewed this year’s Art Walk, discussed event logistics and promotion, and addressed damage to a ceramic sculpture that was displayed on Bridal Street.

Several commissioners said turnout was stronger than in recent years, with estimates of roughly 60 to 75 attendees on the walk. Commissioners discussed the event sound system: a directional microphone used at the event worked for clear, close-range speaking but drew mixed reviews, and members proposed budgeting $500–$600 for a more reliable unit for future events.

Budget and honorarium details were discussed in depth. Commissioners said the commission’s annual allocation from trustees is $25,000 and that the Art Walk paid 15 honorariums this year. A year-to-date honorarium total noted in the meeting printout was just under $20,000; commissioners cautioned that additional expenses could appear on next month’s report, so an exact remaining balance is not yet final. Members also discussed a separate town-managed 1% fund used for public-art projects; one member said that fund’s balance has been represented as “somewhere around $30,000” but that an official statement from town finance had not been provided.

Commissioners addressed a ceramic sculpture by an artist identified as Sarah that was damaged during the event. Sarah emailed a commissioner to report the damage; commissioners said the artwork contract includes insurance and that a claim will be filed. Members discussed anecdotal reports that the damage may have been accidental and possibly involved someone attempting to climb or sit on the piece late at night; commissioners emphasized they had only heard those accounts as rumors and said they would defer to town staff and any police report needed for the insurance claim. The commission discussed whether to require more durable materials or more explicit liability language in future artist agreements.

Members also discussed logistics for next year’s Art Walk, including a potential RSVP system to manage group size, splitting tours, improving day-of social media and town website promotion, and possibly purchasing a commission-controlled social-media account. Commissioners praised Marble Distillery for hosting the reception and clarified that sponsorships and private donations typically pay for alcohol while CPAC covers venue and catering costs.

Commissioners asked staff for clearer documentation of the 1% fund balance and for the maintenance history of individual sculptures; staff said Lori (town staff) maintains records and would provide details when available.","Commission members recapped the recent Art Walk, discussed equipment and promotion, confirmed honorarium counts and budgets, and addressed a ceramic sculpture by artist Sarah damaged during the event; an insurance claim is expected and staff are following up with the artist.",{"_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},6536234,"Carbondale Public Arts Commission elects Michelle Cook chair, Lesha named vice chair",5006,116000,5122000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3804929-d60f154832830c48d469304822855aa6&start=116&end=5122","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3804929-d60f154832830c48d469304822855aa6/thumbnail_116000.jpg","/articles/6536234/Carbondale/Garfield-County/Colorado/Carbondale-Public-Arts-Commission-elects-Michelle-Cook-chair-Lesha-named-vice-chair","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6536234-4447604afc2477301a5c297107f697be/orig.mp4?Expires=1770566603&Signature=Ep-pR2yoJY87kGRqBdFNNk8x4zOgIRMbLJYgVhu6uhE~tt0h~RDPFqYFI7we~LcajMDbEOqy7q61PtuMTAN4N1tvwvJoOSzklZUxYAdJw3PKGhTNSL6YfY8zVan57nQ45QXhZw8iF~PHWrmKnDB4o0x37RZbaRxsKnNkPA--ggtM-gyCQ2j4DU4sXH-IKwUyJJu3mLI3hyOrTPVioEVIHLL4DQyVCPvemyFdmWu1vFxQ9Dx1mGnRh-56rcAgjngn1illQuXKoNXktdOfxP-HMmQXMKU-ieWZ0QdHUGbsbxfStvfoXiMaEoYeVuRbSncgGLycLibrX9dh~mHwj8pLfQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Carbondale Public Arts Commission on Monday elected Michelle Cook as chair and Lesha as vice chair after a roll-call vote during its regularly scheduled meeting.

The commission first approved the meeting minutes by motion; a member moved to approve and there were no objections, allowing the meeting to proceed to officer nominations. To enable Cook to vote in the chair election, Suzanne renounced her voting membership and became an alternate; Cook then accepted voting membership for the purpose of the election. The commission held a roll-call vote that recorded all members present voting in favor of Cook for chair and in favor of Lesha for vice chair.

The vote was unanimous among members present. After the results were read aloud, commissioners congratulated the newly elected officers and turned to the next items on the agenda.

The leadership changes take effect immediately, per comments during the meeting.

The meeting also included routine administrative announcements, including board-and-commission training scheduled for Monday the 23rd that staff said is mandatory for members.

The commission set its next meeting date for the second of the following month.","At a June meeting, the Carbondale Public Arts Commission unanimously approved Michelle Cook as chair and Lesha as vice chair following a procedural renouncement and a roll-call vote; the commission also approved meeting minutes.","actionData","errors"]
