Sherri was at the Hoedown to promote a campaign for funding this art program.
Karen said we are just starting this program and that we need to identify places where
art could be displayed,
It was noted that we do not receive money from the Town for the art. But, there may be
some money for publicity. In the city of Los Altos there is $1,000 for each art work.
Sherri spoke about a wish list, a mission statement about the program and wants to
include art students in some way.
She suggested that we put out a RFP for art, to search for artists
Another idea was suggested to have artists give a talk, workshops for students
Jean suggested that we look for sites in town for placing art and select one for the first
piece,
We set a task to look at sites before the next meeting and take photos of our selections
the next meeting is October 28 at 7pm.
Meeting adjourned at 8:30
