Summary

Committee discussed goals 1–3 of its strategic plan (diversity/inclusion, neighborhood infusion of art, funding and maintenance) and endorsed an informal arts roundtable to increase outreach and transparency, while staff recommended a master-plan RFP for a midterm update.

The Art and Public Places Committee reviewed progress on the first three goals of its four-year strategic plan — representation and inclusion, neighborhood public-art access, and funding/maintenance — and discussed new outreach options including an informal Arts Roundtable to broaden participation.

Meredith (staff member) presented accomplishments and remaining action items in the plan and said staff intend to issue a request for proposals to update the master plan in the next fiscal year. "We'll need to go to RFP to have someone assist with the master plan revision," Meredith said, adding that staff will gather committee feedback now to inform any RFP.

Why it matters: the strategic plan guides the public-art program’s priorities across neighborhoods, funding and partnerships. Committee members highlighted outreach, partnerships with businesses, maintenance funding and inclusive programming beyond visual art as priorities to carry into the next work plan.
