[Public Arts Advisory Board on October 19, 2023.]
[00:00:07]
GOOD EVENING. I'M CALLING THE PUBLIC ARTS ADVISORY BOARD MEETING OF OCTOBER 1920 23 TO ORDER AT 609 PM MADAM SECRETARY, WILL YOU PLEASE TAKE ROLL? I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANITA. HERE. CASSIE.
HERE. ESTHER. HERE, GLORIA. JOHN HERE, JOSEPH. HERE. AND STEVENS, ILL. AND COULD NOT ATTEND TONIGHT. SO WE HAVE A QUORUM. NO ONE IS PRESENT TO ADDRESS THE BOARD SO WE WILL MOVE ON TO THE DISCUSSION ITEMS. FIRST ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS THE BOARD WILL RECEIVE AN UPDATE REGARDING THE PROGRESS AND INSTALLATION OF THE ART PIECE WALKING TRAILS. PHASE ONE. THE ARTIST AND HER HUSBAND WHO DOES A LOT OF THE ENGINEERING CAME OUT ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO AND TOOK A LOOK AT THE SIDE AND TALKED WITH THE PARK SUPERINTENDENT AND ALSO WITH THE CONSTRUCTION MANAGER FOR THE COMPLEX AND THEY HAVE THE POSITIONING THAT THEY WANT REVERIE IN AND THEY'RE GOING TO RUN SIDEWALKS TO THE PEACE AND THEN THEY'RE GOING TO PUT A CONCRETE PATH AROUND THE PIECE SO THAT PEOPLE CAN WALK AROUND AND VIEW ALL SIDES OF IT, SINCE IT'S GOING TO BE ON BOTH SIDES, AND THE PARKS IS GOING TO TAKE CARE OF THAT IN THEIR BUDGET. I ALSO PUT SOME LANDSCAPING OUT THERE AS WELL. UM I TALKED TO KATIE ABOUT WHEN SHE MIGHT BE INSTALLING THE PEACE, AND SHE SAID SHE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE THE FIRST OR SECOND WEEK OF NOVEMBER. SO I WILL CONTACT YOU ALL AS SOON AS I HAVE A FIRM DATE. IT'S PROBABLY GOING TO TAKE HER THREE DAYS AT LEAST TO INSTALL ALL THE MOSAICS. SO IF YOU WANT TO COME OUT AND KIND OF WATCH HER AND SEE WHAT SHE'S DOING, THAT WOULD BE AWESOME. WILL YOU LET US KNOW WHAT HOURS SHE'S PLANNING ON BEING OUT THERE AND ALL THAT WILL, I SURE WILL. ABOUT WHAT TIME WHAT? CAN BE AWFUL. SHOULD BE OUT THERE THE FIRST OR SECOND WEEK AND SHE'LL BE STAYING IN TOWN WHILE WHILE SHE'S DOING IT I DON'T KNOW FOR SURE IF SHE'S BRINGING OTHER PEOPLE TO HELP HER. OR IF SHE'S PLANNING TO DO IT BY YOURSELF, BUT WE DO HAVE AN ART STUDENT THAT WAS INTERESTED IN COMING OUT AND HELPING HER SO AND THEN WE'LL THERE BE LIKE PUBLICITY AROUND HER INSTALLATION, LIKE LETTING PEOPLE IN THE CITY NO, THAT THAT'S HAPPENING SO THEY CAN WATCH TALKED ABOUT INTERACTING WITH THE COMMUNITY. YEAH, WE'LL POST IT ON FACEBOOK. AS SOON AS I HAVE A DATE AND SEE IF WE CAN GET SOME FOLKS OUT, AND, UM AND ALSO, YOU KNOW, JUST SEE IF PEOPLE WANT TO JUST COME OUT AND WATCH YOUR WORK. ALL RIGHT. NEXT ITEM ON THE AGENDA IS THE BOARD WILL HEAR UPDATES AND TIMELINES FOR PRESENTATION TO THE CITY COUNCIL BY ART FINALIST YOSHI, RIGHT. UM I HAVE SPOKEN TO YOSHI AND I HAVE GOTTEN HIS DESIGNS. UM HE WAS A LITTLE BIT CONCERNED WITH THE SACRED FIRE. UM ABOUT HOW HE WAS GOING TO DO THE MOUND. UM AND. HE KIND OF HAD A HIGH PRICE IN HIS BUDGET FOR THAT, SO I SUGGESTED HE CALLED THE ENGINEERING FIRM THAT KATIE USES BECAUSE SHE HAD SAID THAT THEY WERE VERY REASONABLE. THEY'RE CERTIFIED IN TEXAS. AND SO HE DID DO THAT. AND, UM THE ENGINEER TOLD HIM THAT IF HE GRATED AND CONDENSE THE SOIL. WHICH, UM. WOULD MEAN THEY BRING IN A LAYER. THEY WATER IT. THEY GRADE IT AND THEN THEY BRING IN ANOTHER ONE. HE WOULDN'T HAVE TO HAVE ANY STRUCTURAL. UM PILLARS OR ANYTHING THAT WOULD HOLD IT IN PLACE, FOR SURE. UM OUR CONSTRUCTION MANAGER SAID HE DIDN'T MIND BRINGING THESE THE SOIL IN FOR HIM. BUT HE WILL HAVE TO DO ALL OF THE GRADING AND BECAUSE THAT'S PART OF HIS BUDGET, AND HE'S GUARANTEEING IT. SO, UM. I WILL HAVE THE CONTRACT READY TO GO TO CITY COUNCIL ON THE 14TH OF NOVEMBER, SO PLEASE MARK IT ON YOUR CALENDAR TO COME. I ALSO TALKED TO JEREMY ZAN. AND HE SAID THAT THERE WERE 29 TRIBES OF THE CAT OWES THAT ACTUALLY CAME INTO TEXAS. AND HE WANTED TO
[00:05:03]
RECOGNIZE THEM. SO I TOLD HIM IF HE COULD GET SOME OF THE TRIBE MEMBERSHIP TOGETHER AND COME TO THE COUNCIL MEETING. PERHAPS WE COULD DO A PROCLAMATION FOR THEM. AND THEN HAVE THE PRESENTATION BY YOSHI DURING THE BUSINESS MEETING. UM SO WE'RE STILL KIND OF WORKING ON THAT.SO I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT THIS MOUND. SO AS FAR AS THE EROSION GOES AND THINGS LIKE THAT, LIKE WILL THERE BE? IT'LL BE LIKE COVERED IN GRASS, RIGHT AT LEAST PARTS OF IT. BESIDES MAYBE, AND MAYBE LIKE IRRIGATION, PUT INTO WATER THAT GRASS AND STUFF LIKE WAS THAT PART OF HIS BUDGET, OR HOW'S THAT? NO THAT'S NOT PART OF HIS BUDGET THAT WOULD BE UP TO THE PARKS DEPARTMENT TO DO AND I WOULD GUESS THAT THEY WOULD PROBABLY PUT GRASSES ALONG THE PERIMETER OF THE BOTTOM OF THE MOUND. TO KIND OF, UM. CURTAIL SOME OF SOME EROSION. BUT THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE BUILT. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT IT WILL NOT ERODE. WE HAVE A FIVE YEAR CONTRACT OUR FIVE YEAR GUARANTEE IN OUR CONTRACT, SO IF IT ERODES I WOULD IMAGINE IT WOULD ERODE BY THEN, AND HE WOULD HAVE TO REPAIR IT. I DON'T THINK THE OTHER PIECE WILL BE ON A MOUND. AND I THINK THE WAY HE'S DESIGNED IT. IT KIND OF LOOKS COOL, NOT ON AMOUNT BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S COMING OUT OF THE GROUND. BUT THAT'S JUST MY OPINION. DO WE HAVE? I WAS UNABLE TO JOIN THE LAST MEETING. UM DO WE HAVE ANY ILLUSTRATIONS OR VISUAL? DESCRIPTION OF THE. PIECE YOU'RE REFERRING TO THAT DOESN'T NEED ANY KIND OF FOUNDATION. I'M GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE SOMEBODY TRANSLATE FOR ME BECAUSE I CAN'T HEAR YOU FROM DOWN THERE. I GUESS I HEARD THAT, BUT, UM. UM SO MY QUESTION IS BECAUSE I MISSED THE LAST MEETING. UM I DON'T I CAN'T VISUALIZE WHAT THIS PIECE IS GOING TO LOOK LIKE. AND I'M REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT ANY KIND OF. NOT EROSION AS MUCH AS SOIL MOVEMENT BECAUSE OF THE SOIL HERE. AND NOT THAT I'M AN ENGINEER, BECAUSE I'M NOT. BUT OVER TIME. DIRT MOVES HERE. AND NOT HAVING ANY KIND OF FOUNDATION. SOUNDS WEIRD TO ME.
WELL, HE HAS TO HAVE HIS HIS, UM STRUCTURE. WHAT? WHATEVER IT MIGHT BE. CERTIFIED BY A TEXAS CERTIFIED ENGINEER. AND THAT GUARANTEES THAT. IT'S GOING TO LAST. SO IF THE ENGINEER SAYS THAT THE MOUND CAN BE BUILT IF IT'S TO THOSE SPECIFICATIONS, THE ONLY WAY IT WOULD HAVE RODE AS IF THEY'RE NOT AT THE SPECIFICATIONS AND IT MAY TAKE OUR. CONSTRUCTION MANAGER TO GO OUT THERE AND KIND OF OVERSEE THAT PART OF THE PROJECT. AGAIN IT'S NOT EROSION THAT IS THE CONCERN HERE AS MUCH AS IT IS SOIL MOVEMENT FROM CONTRACTION AND EXPANSION. UM, DUE TO THE HEAT AND EXCESS MOISTURE IN THE WINTER AND HEAT IN THE SUMMER. JUST YOU KNOW, SOIL DOESN'T NECESSARILY ROAD IF THERE'S ENOUGH VEGETATION TO HOLD IT TOGETHER, BUT IT MOVES. I DON'T KNOW AGAIN. I'M NOT AN ENGINEER, SO I JUST YOU KNOW, I SEE HOME FOUNDATIONS THAT MOVES THAT ARE ON SIX HEAVY CONCRETE. YOU KNOW SUPPORTS AND THEY MOVE. SO HOW WOULD THIS NOT MOVE. IF THEY GET THE SOIL CONDENSED PROPERLY. THE SHOULDN'T SET. AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT THE ENGINEER WAS SAYING SO, BUT THAT'S ALSO WHY THE OTHER GUY DOESN'T WANT TO BE THE ONE TO DO THAT PART. THEY DON'T MIND BRINGING THE DIRT IN BECAUSE IT'S A IT'S A PROCESS AND THERE'S A LOT OF LIABILITY IN THAT PROCESS. BUT THEY GET IT RIGHT. IT WON'T MOVE. IF THEY DON'T GET IT, RIGHT. IT'S GONNA SETTLE AND THEN THEY'LL HAVE TO REPAIR IT. BUT I WOULD THINK THAT IF IT SETS FOR FIVE YEARS, IT WILL SIT FOR THE LONG TERM AND AS LONG AS IT MESSES UP. IF IT'S GOING TO AND DURING THAT TIME FRAME, THEN THEY'LL HAVE TO FIX IT AND PUT IT BACK. IT'S UM FIX IT, THEN IT WILL BE TO DO IT. IT'S WELL IF IT'S GUARANTEED BY A CIVIL ENGINEER, THEN THAT CIVIL ENGINEER IS GOING AFTER THE ANSWER TO IT, BECAUSE HE CERTIFIED IT. UM BUT WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT JUST DIRT. HE
[00:10:03]
HEADS GOING TO BE SAND. COLICKY. WHATEVER IT TAKES TO MAKE THAT DENSE ENOUGH. THAT IT WON'T MOVE. IT'S NOT JUST PILING DIRT UP AND KIND OF HOPING FOR THE BEST. I KNOW THAT IN THE PAST, WE USED TO HAVE A BUSINESS THAT BUILT LOCATIONS FOR OIL. OIL RIGS. AND WE USED A LOT OF QUALITY AND IT HAD TO BE WATERED AND GRADED. AND THEN YOU PUT ANOTHER LAYER ON WATER AND GRADED AND IT LASTS. FOREVER. SO . OUR NEXT DISCUSSION ITEM IS THE BOARD WILL HERE. HE'S NOT HERE. SO WE'RE GOING TO SKIP DISCUSSION. ITEM THREE. YES UM, SINCE STEVE'S NOT ABLE TO ATTEND AND WE WILL GO ON TO DISCUSSION ITEM BEFORE DISCUSSION AND UPDATE REGARDING THE 2023 WILEY ARTS FESTIVAL. UM I WILL SAY SOMETHING ON THE DISCUSSION ITEM FOR NUMBER THREE. UM IN YOUR PACKET OR SOME DESIGNS THAT STEVE HAS PROPOSED. AND I BELIEVE THERE'S SOME PRICING IN THERE AS WELL. SO WHEN YOU HAVE A MINUTE IF YOU WOULD TAKE THAT HOME AND JUST KIND OF REVIEW IT THEN WHEN WE MEET THE NEXT TIME WE CAN KIND OF GO OVER IT. AND UM AND WE'LL HAVE A BETTER IDEA OF WHAT HE'S PROPOSING. SO I WENT AHEAD AND LEFT IT IN THERE. UM AS FAR AS THE ART FESTIVAL.UM WE ARE JUST ABOUT FULL. WE'VE GOT 26 BOOTHS LEFT. AND THAT'S WITH 1 10 BY 10 18 BY 10 AND 18 BY EIGHT. BEING SAVED FOR SPONSORS, BUT WE HAVE A WAIT LIST. SO IF THE SPONSORS DON'T COME UP, THEN WE'LL GIVE IT TO THOSE FOLKS. THE OUTSIDE BOOTHS. WE HAVE, UM. 19 WITHOUT ELECTRICITY AND SIX WITH ELECTRICITY AND 25 BY EIGHT. WE HAVE ABOUT 28 NEW VENDORS AND, UM. ABOUT SIX THAT HAVEN'T PAID SO I DON'T PUT THEM ON THE LIST AND SUBTRACT THEM UNTIL THEY ACTUALLY SENT THEIR MONEY IN AH, SO TOMORROW IS THE DEADLINE FOR THOSE SIX. IF THEY DON'T, THEN THEY WILL BE REMOVED AND THEY'LL HAVE TO REAPPLY AGAIN. SO TONIGHT AFTER THIS MEETING, UM THE REVIEW PANEL WILL MEET AND MAKE THE FINAL DECISIONS ON THE LAST OF THE VENDORS. UM OTHER THAN THAT, WE'RE IN GREAT SHAPE. WE'VE GOT, UM KIDS ACTIVITIES. THE PARK WILL HAVE THE BOUNCE HOUSES AND ALL OF THAT, UM, WE'VE GOT FOOD VENDORS, ALTHOUGH I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO GET A KETTLE POPCORN PERSON IF YOU KNOW ANYBODY THAT SELLS KETTLE POPCORN. BUT EVERYTHING ELSE IS PRETTY MUCH COVERED. SO WE'RE WELL ON OUR WAY. AND AT SOME POINT I'M JUST GOING TO HAVE TO GO ONLINE AND SAY SORRY, WE CAN'T TAKE ANY MORE APPLICATIONS. OKAY, THAT CORBYN WILLIAM HE WOULD LIKE. MAYBE WHEN WE TALKED ABOUT HAVING LIKE A SINGER. THREE EMPTY BOXES JUST STAGE. INFORMATION TO ME. UH HUH . UM CASSIE IS KIND OF OVER THE ENTERTAINMENT. SO UM, SHE CAN.
SHE CAN GET WITH HIM. BECAUSE SHE'S DOING THE SCHEDULE, GLORIA REACHED OUT. TO, UM IT'S THE DANCE STUDIOS THAT I'M GETTING OUT TO GET SOME PERFORMANCES SET UP FOR THAT, SO WE'LL HAVE SOME PERFORMERS. UM SO YEAH, JUST LET ME KNOW. DO THEY REACH OUT TO YOU FOR THAT? THANK YOU. WELL, THERE'S SOME HISTORY ON THAT, UM . TWO OF THE EMPLOYEES THAT THEIR BALLOTS IN REC CENTER I KNOW HIM FROM THE CROSS CHURCH AND THINGS AND HE WAS SINGING. BINGO THEY OR SOMETHING? BECAUSE I WALKED IN THERE AND HE HAD THIS LITTLE BOX SET UP AND THE SINGING AND SO WHAT HAPPENED? TALK TO HIM AND ASKED HIM IF HE WOULD BE INTERESTED PRO BONO. AND SOMETHING LIKE THAT. AND, UH, SO I TOLD HIM. WE WERE DISCUSSING WHAT WE WOULD DO, HOW WE WOULD DO IT, BUT I JUST MENTIONED TO HIM THAT YOU KNOW WHEN YOU'RE WE HAD TO SOMEBODY WALK UP AND THEY WERE SINGING AND THEY HAD THEIR LITTLE CHEERIO GEARBOX. AND NEXT THING YOU KNOW THEY WERE THEY WERE SINGING CHRISTMAS TYPE MUSIC, AND THEN THEY NEED SOME MORE OF THE SIXTIES AND SEVENTIES, AND THE KIDS WERE DOING KARAOKE PIANIST. IT WAS KIND OF, YOU KNOW, KIND OF NATURE BECAUSE THEY SET THEMSELVES UP RIGHT OUTSIDE THE BACK DOOR. AND, UH, BUT I'LL GIVE YOU HIS NAME. AND
[00:15:04]
IT SOUNDS LIKE HE WOULD BE A YOUNG GUY, AND I THINK IT'S JUST A GUITAR. BUT PRETTY I GUESS I'M TRYING TO KEEP COMES WITH GOOD REFERENCES FROM FROM THE PEOPLE WHO KNOW HIM, OKAY? DO WE FIGURE OUT A STAGE? I CAN'T REMEMBER. OKAY, SO WE NEED A STAGE. OR THEY'LL WE HAD DISCUSSED EITHER.SETTING UP AND SETTING IT, UH I DON'T KNOW SOME BOUNDS UP HONEST ON A STREET OR SOMETHING. JUST TO WHERE WE HAVE SPACE AVAILABLE FOR PERFORMERS. SOMETIMES THE STAGES TEMPORARY STAGES MORE UNSAFE THAN JUST BEING SET UP ON A STREET STREET LEVEL. WOULD YOU NEED A VERY BIG STAGE? UM I DON'T KNOW ALL THE SIZES OF OUR PERFORMANCE GROUPS. BUT IF THEY ARE OF ANY DEFENSE SIZE, THEN WE MIGHT NEED A PRETTY GOOD SIZED AREA. THE PARKS HAS A STAGE, BUT I DON'T THINK IT'S REAL BIG.
OKAY SO THE BIGGER GROUPS MAY NEED TO GET WITH WE MAY NEED TO JUST KOURTNEY OFF AN AREA AND LET THEM CANCEL ON THE STREET RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE EVENT CENTER. IS THERE A WAY FOR ME TO GET SOME KIND OF MEASUREMENTS THAT I CAN PASS THAT, ALONG FOR? STUDIOS A LOT OF TIMES THEY'LL BLOCK IT OFF IN THEIR STUDIO SPACE CAN I WILL REACH OUT TO, UM BRENT TOMORROW AND FIND OUT WHAT SIZE THAT IS. AND THEN, UM, THE SPEAKERS FOR THE SOUND. WAS ANYBODY GOING TO DO ANYTHING WITH? DID YOU? WERE YOU ABLE TO GET ANYTHING JUST BEFORE? NO, JOSEPH. PICK ONE. I CAN'T. I JUST NEED TO KNOW. UM LIKE WHAT? LET ME POWER TO WHEREVER WE'RE AT. AH AND OBVIOUSLY YOU KNOW WHAT YOU WANT. SO LET'S GO WITH, YOU KNOW, LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN. BASICS AND THEN I CAN FIGURE OUT MAN. I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM SUPPLYING IT. YEAH, SO THE TWO OF YOU COULD GET TOGETHER. THAT'S ALL I HAVE ON THE ART FESTIVAL. I FEEL LIKE WE'RE AHEAD. WE WILL NOW GO INTO BUSINESS ITEMS.

HAVE HAVE YOU EVER SEEN LIFE? THE BOXES ON THE CORNERS BY THE BY THE STOPLIGHTS. THE METAL BOXES. YEAH. OKAY? UM A LOT OF CITIES NOT JUST IN TEXAS, BUT ALL OVER THE UNITED STATES PAINT THOSE BOXES. SO WE'RE HAVING A CONTEST. UM, THE FAMOUS TEXAS. AND EXCUSE ME THE STUDENTS OVER AT THE COLLEGE IN THE ART DEPARTMENT WHO ARE STUDYING TO D. ART. ARE GOING TO DESIGN UM DO DIFFERENT DESIGNS. AND WE'RE GOING TO DONATE TO THE COLLEGE TO THEIR ENDOWMENT FUND $600 THE THREE WINNERS OF THE DESIGNS WILL GET $200 EACH AND WE'LL HAVE TO USE IT ON EDUCATION. AND IN TURN, THE CLASS WILL PAINT THE THREE BOXES WITH THOSE DESIGNS. SO WE HAVE 29. CITY BOXES WHEN A CITY GETS OVER 50,000 THEY TAKE OVER THE STOPLIGHTS. SO THE CITY OWNS THOSE BOXES.

YEAH, YEAH. ALL RIGHT. WELL, I MEAN, I WOULDN'T MIND VOLUNTEERING. IF YOU WANT. IF SOMEONE ELSE WANTS TO TAKE IT, THAT'S FINE. I'M REALLY GOOD WITH THAT. NO, I'M NOT SAYING THAT. I GUESS THAT I THINK FOR ME WOULD BE NICE TO BE WITH SOMEONE AS YOU SAID. RIGHT WE'RE GONNA DO THREE A YEAR, SO THERE WILL BE LOTS OF OPPORTUNITY. I HAVE A QUESTION. QUESTIONS. AREA. I DON'T KNOW. UM HAS ANYBODY SEEN. THE ART THAT'S BEEN DONE AND HISTORIC DOWNTOWN MCKINNEY WITH A LITTLE HOUSES. HAVE YOU SEEN THAT? IT'S SUPER CUTE. WHERE THERE'S BEEN ARTWORK DONE AND CERTAIN AREAS OF DOWNTOWN MCKINNEY AND IT'S ALMOST LIKE A SCAVENGER HUNT. LIKE WHERE THAT THE KEY ITEM IS LIKE A MINIATURE HOUSE. KIND OF IN A INTEGRATED INTO THE ART PIECE. AND IT'S SUPER SUPER CUTE . IF YOU GOOGLE. I'M SURE YOU'LL FIND IT IF YOU GOOGLE IT OR I'LL SEE IF I CAN FIND THE FACEBOOK. YES SAMMY, SEND ME A COUPLE OF PICTURES. IF YOU DON'T MIND. I MEAN, IT MIGHT BE LATE IN THE GAME TO LIKE, KIND OF PICK US THEME. TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT , AND IT MIGHT BE A COPYCAT, BUT IT WAS. IT WAS REALLY ADORABLE.
YEAH. I JUST KIND OF POPPED INTO MY HEAD ON IT, BUT YOU CAN SEE IF YOU CAN GET THE ARTIST TO HIDE AN EYE. SO WHY DO I GOT WYLIE? END OF THEIR INCORPORATED INTO EACH ONE OF THE PAINTING BOXES, AND THEN YOU KIND OF START YOUR OWN LITTLE SCAVENGER HUNT TYPE. SEE WHAT'S HIDDEN. I DON'T KNOW. FIND THE I YEAH. I DO HAVE ONE QUESTION, SO I KNOW WHEN WE ORIGINALLY TALKED ABOUT THESE BOXES. UM WE TALKED MAYBE ABOUT SOME SORT OF AN INSTAGRAM. TYPE THING. IS THAT SOMETHING? WE'RE GOING TO KIND OF TRY TO DO. TO WHERE PEOPLE CAN GO TO THESE STUDENTS, INSTAGRAM AND SEE THEIR ART AND SEE WHAT THEY DO AND WHAT THEY PRODUCE. YES. UM I'M HOPING THAT WE CAN INCORPORATED INTO OUR AUTO CAST, AND THEN THEY CAN LOOK THEM UP IF THEY WANT TO, AND GO OUT AND SEE THEM. UM INSTAGRAM. WE'LL PUT FLASHES OUT LIKE IF WE'RE DOING A CONTEST OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, BUT, UM YOU KNOW, I MEAN, MOST MOST OF THE CITIES THAT DO THESE ART WALKS OR ART ON SOMETHING HAVE INSTAGRAM WALKS. THAT'S WHERE THEY HAVE THE INSTAGRAM ON THERE AND SEE IT. YOU CAN ACTUALLY GO TO THE ARTIST, OTHER STUFF, SO I'M BUT ONE PROMOTE THE ARTIST AND TO, YOU KNOW, PROMOTE PEOPLE GOING OUT AND ACTUALLY SEEING THE ART. YEAH OTHER CAST WORKS THE SAME WAY. IT'S JUST NOT ON INSTAGRAM. UM. OH HOW? YEAH I'LL HAVE TO CHECK WITH CRAIG TO SEE IF WE
[00:25:04]
HAVE AN INSTAGRAM BECAUSE I'M REALLY NOT SURE. I KNOW WE HAVE TWITTER AND WE HAVE FACEBOOK.BUT I'M NOT SURE ABOUT INSTAGRAM. BUT THEY'RE HIRING IN ADVANCE PERSON.

I MEAN, BUT SINCE THERE'S TWO OTHER ARTIST AND THEN WHAT? WE WOULD JUST LEAVE AND GO THROUGH ALL OF THE I THINK THE PROPOSALS TAKE IT. IT'S SOMETHING YOU WANT TO DO HAVE IT. WELL, I'M TRYING. I'M TRYING TO GIVE EVERYBODY THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO SERVE ON ONE OF THE SELECTION COMMITTEES THAT HASN'T ALREADY DONE IT. HAVE ANOTHER THAN LAST PARKS. OKAY PARTS, AND I DON'T MIND DOING THAT.
