The Chair reported to the committee that a small art reception held the previous evening drew a strong turnout and that winners were recognized, including a Mayor's Choice Award. "It was very well attended," the Chair said, and reported that "Laura said we had 28 applicants a year ago, and this year we had 40."

The report did not include a precise attendance count; the Chair provided an approximate estimate during remarks and highlighted the increase in entries as evidence of rising participation in the city's art programs.
