2. Minutes of January 2019 meeting approved, Moved: N. Andrews, Second: S. Newman; Diane Brauch
requested that any changes suggested by members to the minutes be limited to corrections of fact.
3. Presentations: Our new Liaison, George Tyson, introduced himself and offered his help.
4. Open Items:
A. Digital Art Gallery: Robyn Aber is our first LAH artist to present her art on the online site. A
button & link have been installed on the PAC page & the LAH Town homepage to more easily find the art
on the site. We have a list of artists waiting to display. Our task is to advertise that the site exists and
entice people to watch the display. We need to verify if we have a counter on the page.
ACTION: Robyn is checking with Town staff to determine if the digital gallery can be shown on Town Hall
monitors per request from Vice-Mayor Michelle Wu (who said the gallery achieved her original
suggestion to PAC to consider a display of digital public art).
B. Nikki Andrews gave an update on Foothill College competition. She is still working on finding
the correct person to present the idea.
C. ACTION: Farah Tabatabai will bring the photos for Amos Robinson’s Kinetic art next meeting
for us to vote on again.
5. New Business: A. David Milgram presented information regarding the meeting he and Nikki Andrews
had with Mayor Spreen. We need to present to Mayor Spreen a clear statement of our mission and why
art is important in a rural setting. He also requested we meet with other committees to discuss our
plans; in particular Open Space, Pathways, Parks and Rec, and Environmental Design.
B. PAC presentation at Town events: Earth Day is April 15. Objective: visibility of group
and to recruit new members. Consider a visual presentation and display our online gallery? Sarah
Robustelli told us the camp-out event is not a worthwhile PR opportunity for PAC.
ACTION: All members please come with ideas for this event to the March meeting.
C. Recruiting new members to PAC:
ACTION: Come with ideas for this also, please.
D. PAC email: ACTION: David Milgram will work on allowing more committee members
access to our email site.
