          FEEL LIKE IT'S FAR. I'M CALLING THE PUBLIC ARTS BOARD MEETING TO ORDER AT 605. MADAM SECRETARY, 
          [Public Arts Advisory Board on August 15, 2024.]
WILL YOU TAKE THE ROLL? YES. MINAJ YES. CHANTILLY. PRESENT. CASSIE. PRESENT. STEVE. PRESENT. 
          GLORIA ASHMAN. HERE WE HAVE A QUORUM. THE 2024 WILY ARTS FESTIVAL REVIEW PANEL WILL MEET IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE REGULAR MEETING. IS THERE IS NO ONE PRESENT TO ADDRESS THE BOARD UNDER PUBLIC COMMENTS, SO WE'LL MOVE ON TO THE DISCUSSION ITEMS. FIRST. DISCUSSION ITEM TO DISCUSS AND REVIEW THE 2024 WILY ARTS FESTIVAL VENDOR APPLICATIONS AND UPDATE ON THE EVENT. SO, WE HAVE A 50 APPLICATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN APPROVED. WE HAVE ANOTHER SIX THAT HAVEN'T PAID YET. AND THEN WE HAVE 130 TO GO OVER THIS EVENING. SO WE CAN HOLD 195 UNLESS FOR SOME REASON CRAIG GIVES US A FEW MORE BOOTHS AND OUT OF THAT WE HAVE 183. SO HYPOTHETICALLY, IF THEY WERE ALL APPROVED, WE'D BE JUST ABOUT DONE. BUT I'M SURE THAT THERE'S SOME THAT MAY OR MAY NOT BE APPROVED. SO ANYWAY, THAT'S WHERE WE'RE AT RIGHT NOW. WE HAVE THREE FOOD VENDORS, A COFFEE TRUCK THAT DOES ESPRESSO AND FLAVORED COFFEES, AND THEN WE HAVE SOFT SERVE ICE CREAM, AND THEN WE HAVE FAIR FOODS. AND WE'RE HOPING TO GET, KETTLE CORN AND, COTTON CANDY AND HOPEFULLY GREEK FOOD. SO I'LL LET YOU KNOW AS TIME GOES ON. WHO'S APPLIED? THAT'S ALL I HAVE. OH AND WE'RE GOING TO MEET AFTER THE MEETING WITH THE SELECTION PANEL. AND I WANTED TO SEE WHO WAS ON THAT PANEL. CHANTILLY. WERE YOU ON IT? YES. SO IT WAS YOU? STEVE AND ASHTON, RIGHT? YES. OKAY THANK YOU. WE'LL BE HERE A WHIL. THANK YOU. CAROL GO AHEAD. CAN I HAVE A. THIS W F VENDOR APPLICATIONS LATE LAST MONTH, WE HAD A VENDOR SUMMIT. RIGHT. AND WE NEED TO TURN IN MY SPONSOR. OKAY. SO RIGHT INTO IT. SO LAST MONTH, WE HAD A VENDOR GET TOGETHER RIGHT IN A IN A WILEY PARK. IS THAT CORRECT? THIS IS SOME KIND OF NEW REGISTRATION OF. ARE WE TALKING ABOUT THE SELECTION COMMITTEE? NO, I'M TALKING ABOUT THIS W F VENDOR APPLICATIONS. RIGHT OH, YES. LAST YEAR WE DID HAVE BLUEGRASS AND WE MADE $15,000 ON THE EVENT. OKAY. SO IT WAS JUST KIND OF AN OVERVIEW OF, OF THE EVENT. AND HOW MUCH WE MADE. OKAY. 
          BASICALLY IT AND BUT WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER THINGS? RIGHT. AND THEY WERE MENTIONING THAT BY 4:00, NO ONE WAS AVAILABLE. ALL PEOPLE ARE GONE. THEY WERE MADE TO STAY AROUND 9:00 PM. IS THAT SOMETHING, ARE YOU GOING TO DISCUSS IT AT THE TIME OF THE NINE? YES, THERE WERE SOME, THERE WAS SOME SURVEYS THAT NOTED THAT STAYING UNTIL 9:00 WAS WAS REALLY LATE, AND THEY WANTED A SHORTER TIME PERIOD. SO NEXT YEAR, THE COMMITTEE WILL LOOK AT MAYBE LETTING THE VENDORS, THE, THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS THE STAGE IS SET UP IN A WAY THAT IT'S NOT SAFE FOR THE VENDORS TO LEAVE ANY EARLIER, EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE NOT GETTING A LOT OF SHOPPERS IN THE EVENING. SO THE COMMITTEE WILL HAVE TO LOOK AT PERHAPS ONE CHANGING IT TO A TIME WHEN IT'S NOT SO HOT, AND TWO LOOKING AT REDUCING THE HOURS THAT THEY'RE THERE SO THAT THEY CAN LEAVE 
          [00:05:09]
EARLIER. SO THAT IS ACTUALLY BUSINESS AS USUAL. WHAT I AM THINKING, AND SINCE WE ARE GETTING AROUND $15,000 FROM THE, CAN WE SET UP SOMETHING WEBSITE FOR ONE MONTH BY PAYING PROBABLY $1,000 AND ASK THEM TO, I THINK, UPLOAD, THEIR CONTENT? WHAT DO YOU CALL, WHATEVER THEY WANT TO SELL IN THAT PARTICULAR ONE. AND WE CAN, PROBABLY ASK THEM TO UPLOAD AND WE CAN DO ADDITIONAL MARKETING FOR THEM USING OUR, CAPABILITY. SO MY, MY CONCERN IS THAT RIGHT. WE CAN WE PROVIDE THEM ADDITIONAL VALUE OTHER THAN THE THAT PARTICULAR DAY BY SETTING UP A SOME KIND OF WEBSITE AND DISPLAYING THEIR ITEMS. HE'S ASKING IF WE WOULD BE ABLE TO OFFER THE VENDORS ONLINE SHOPPING. NO, NO, I THINK WHAT HE'S SAYING IS BEFORE THE EVENT, CAN WE SET UP A WEBSITE TO DISPLAY WHAT THEY'LL BE SELLING AND OFFER THAT AS AN OPTION TO HAVE PEOPLE COME OUT AND STAY LONGER? SO IF THEY HAVE TO LEAVE EARLY. WELL, IT WOULDN'T BE SO EASY FOR THEM TO SAY, WE WANT TO LEAVE EARLY BECAUSE THERE THERE MAY WANT TO STAY. SO YEAH, WE DON'T HAVE WE HAVE SO MANY VENDORS THAT THAT WE WOULD NOT HAVE A WEBSITE THAT WOULD DISPLAY ALL OF THOSE VENDORS. WE GIVE SAMPLINGS AND IT'S IN THE NEWSPAPER AND ONLINE OF DIFFERENT UNIQUE VENDORS THAT THEY MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN. BUT TO POST THEM ALL ON THE WEBSITE, WE CAN'T DO THAT. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE ON WITH OUR DISCUSSION ITEMS BECAUSE WE'RE OUT OF ORDER. SO WE'RE GOING TO MOVE ON TO OUR SECOND DISCUSSION ITEM REGARDING PHASE TWO WALKING TRAILS WITH YOSHI. THANK YOU. OKAY. SO I HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM YOSHI SINCE OUR LAST MEETING, BUT I DID REACH OUT TO HIM AND ASK HIM WHERE THE PROGRESS IS ON THE TWO PIECES, THAT WILL BE COMPLETED THIS YEAR, SO I DON'T HAVE AT THIS TIME. I DON'T HAVE A LOT TO REPORT, BUT I WILL GET BACK WITH YOU AS SOON AS I FIND SOMETHING OUT. I'LL SEND AN EMAIL OUT TO EVERYONE. DON'T HIT REPLY, JUST TAKE THE INFORMATION. OKAY THANK YOU. MOVING ON TO DISCUSSION. ITEM NUMBER THREE, UPDATE REGARDING PHASE THREE WALKING TRAILS ART WITH SONNY BEYOND OR BEHIND, I REACHED OUT TO SONNY AND TESS TO LET THEM KNOW THAT WE WERE GOING TO DO A CALL FOR ARTISTS FOR $60,000 FOR THE NATIVE AMERICAN HUNTER, AND SHE RESPONDED AFTER SPEAKING TO SONNY AND SAID THAT THEY STILL WOULD ONLY BE INTERESTED IN DOING THE WHITETAIL DEER. SO AT THIS POINT, I DON'T THINK HE WILL BE APPLYING FOR THE CALL. THAT, THAT IS THAT CALL FOR ARTISTS IS OUT, CORRECT? WELL, YOU'RE GOING TO APPROVE IT TONIGHT. AND IF IT'S APPROVED TONIGHT, THEN WE WILL PUBLISH IT. PUBLISH IT? GOT IT. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT, MOVING ON TO DISCUSSION. ITEM NUMBER FOUR REGARDING THE PROMOTIONAL ITEMS FOR EVENTS AND COSTS. IN YOUR ATTACHMENTS, YOU HAVE NOT IN THE PACKET ITSELF, BUT AS JUST AN INDIVIDUAL ATTACHMENT. THOSE FLAGS HAVE BEEN CHANGED BY VICE CHAIR STEVE. AND THE REASON FOR IT WAS THAT, MANAGEMENT DIDN'T REALLY WANT TO PROMOTE THE PUBLIC ART BOARD. THEY WANTED TO PROMOTE WILY ARTS. SO, THEY WERE CHANGED WITH THE WORDING TO WILY ARTS. AND SO, I'M SURE STEVE WOULD ENTERTAIN ANY KIND OF COMMENTS YOU HAVE ON THE FLAGS. 
          FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE NEW, WE'RE TRYING TO COME UP WITH A TABLE TOPPING A TENT, AND THOSE 
          [00:10:03]
FLAGS TO HAVE AT OUR ART FESTIVAL AND AT THE BLUEGRASS TO JUST KIND OF DRAW ATTENTION TO PUBLIC ART. AND I BELIEVE THE LAST TIME WE CHECKED, IT WAS GOING TO RUN ABOUT 18, $1,900. 
          FOR EVERYTHING. AND SO THIS WOULD BE THE NEW DESIGN, THAT STEVE CAME UP WITH THE BOARD AT TWO MEETINGS AGO, LIKED IT BECAUSE IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS A PALLET WHERE THERE WERE PAINTS, LINES, BUT THEY ALSO THOUGHT ABOUT IT WITH, A BLACK FLAG AND JUST REVERSING THE COLORS. BUT, STEVE CAME UP WITH THIS ONE. SO, IT'S OPEN FOR DISCUSSION. I REALLY LIKE THE WHITE BECAUSE I THINK ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S OUT, WE'LL ADD A POP OF COLOR WITH THAT BRIGHTNESS IN THE BACKGROUND. AND THE DESIGN IS, I STILL LIKE VERY MUCH. YEAH. I THINK WE ALL AGREED ORIGINALLY. 
          I MEAN, THE, THE ORIGINAL DESIGN WAS DONE IN BLACK, AND I THINK, ALONG THE LINES SOMEWHERE, THERE WAS AN AGREEMENT THAT THE WHITE WOULD ACTUALLY BE A LITTLE BIT MORE VISIBLE, JUST SO EVERYBODY'S CLEAR, THIS BASE DESIGN WILL CARRY OVER TO THE TENT, JUST THE POP UP, AND IF WE WOULD PREFER, WE CAN DO THE TABLE COVER, IN THAT DESIGN AS WELL, SO IT CAN JUST BECOME ONE HUGE PROMOTIONAL PACKAGE FOR US AND REALLY DRAW ATTENTION AND HOPEFULLY DRAW MORE. QUESTIONS AS TO WHAT WE DO, YOU KNOW, ANSWER SIMPLE QUESTIONS LIKE, DO YOU KNOW, DOES PUBLIC TAX MONEY FUND THE FESTIVALS? WHICH IT DOES NOT. IT IS THAT IS ALL ON US. SO, RIGHT OPTION FOR THIS TO BE LAUNDERED. CAN YOU LAUNDER THIS THIS ONE AS IT AS IN WASHABLE. YES. YES. ABSOLUTELY YEAH. AND THE BANNER WILL BE ONLY ONE SIDED. TWO SIDED WAS GOING TO BE EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE. 
          SO THAT'S WHY WE DECIDED TO GO AHEAD AND GET TWO ONE FOR EACH SIDE OF THE TENT. ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS. SO THIS IS THE WHAT'S THE TABLETOP GOING TO LOOK LIKE. IS IT GOING TO BE ON THE SIDE OR THE TOP OR IT WILL BE ON THE SIDE. IT'LL BE ON THE SIDE. SO IT'LL BE ON THE FRONT OKAY. IT'LL BE ON THE FRONT. AND I'LL HAVE THE CITY OF WILEY LOGO ON THE ENDS. THANK YOU. STEVE, WOULD YOU WANT TO BRING SOME OF THE FULL DESIGN TO THE NEXT MEETING AND MAYBE SOME COST? I WILL I WILL ABSOLUTELY MOCK THAT UP IN TROUBLE. AND THEN I'LL PUT IT ON AS A BUSINESS ITEM. YEAH, BECAUSE THE FIRST TIME WE DID DO IT, THE COST DID CHANGE, THERE WAS A LONG PERIOD OF TIME BETWEEN THE FIRST ROUND AND, YOU KNOW, GETTING AROUND TO SOMEWHAT APPROVING. SO THE COST DID CHANGE. I WILL GO BACK THROUGH AND REDO ANOTHER ESTIMATE AND PRESENT THAT TO YOU NEXT MEETIN. 
          I HAVE A QUESTION, THESE ARE PUBLIC WALKING TRAILS, RIGHT. DO YOU HAVE ANY KIND OF, CAMERA THAT IS BEING MONITORED HERE, BECAUSE THESE ARE EXPENSIVE ARTS WE ARE PUTTING JUST OUTSIDE. DO YOU HAVE ANY SECURITY CAMERA THAT WILL BE MONITORING THESE YARDS OR. NO HE'S ASKING ABOUT SECURITY FOR THE WALKING TRAILS, THE ART FOR THE ART, THERE ISN'T ANY SECURITY, MOST OF THE ART PIECES, CAN BE REPAIRED IF DAMAGED WITH YOU KNOW, PAINT AND THAT SORT OF THING, THEY ARE THE PARKS DEPARTMENT IS GOING TO PUT LIGHTING BACK THERE. I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S IN NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET OR NOT, BUT THERE WILL BE QUITE A BIT OF LIGHTING. WE HAVE 16 PIECES OF ART AROUND THE CITY AND WE HAVE NEVER HAD ONE DAMAGED. OKAY. GOT YOU. THANK YOU. APPRECIATE ANYTHING ELSE FOR THE PROMOTIONAL ITEMS? OKAY. WE WILL GO INTO OUR. OH YEAH, YEAH. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYBODY IS OKAY WITH THIS TIME. WELL I'M SORRY ABOUT I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYBODY IS STILL OKAY WITH OR IS OKAY WITH THIS DESIGN GOING FORWARD. YES. AWESOME. THANK YO. 
          YES. ALL IN FAVOR? TO HAVE THIS CONVERSATION. YEAH, YEAH. GOOD VERY GOOD. ALL RIGHT, MOVING ON 
          [00:15:16]
TO OUR BUSINESS ITEMS. OUR WITH OUR REGULAR AGENDA, WE NEED TO CONSIDER AND ACT UPON THE PUBLIC ARTS ADVISORY BOARD MINUTES FROM 718 2024. I WILL PUT FORWARD THE MOTION TO CONSIDER AND ACT UPON THE PUBLIC ARTS ADVISORY BOARD MINUTES FROM 718, 20, 24. DO I HAVE A SECOND? I SECOND? I WAS FOR THE ADJOURNMENT FROM CHANTILLY. CAN YOU SHOW YOUR SECOND? SO YOU JUST PUSH YES OR NO OR ABSTAIN? YES, YES. RIGHT. IT IS FOR APPROVAL, RIGHT? YES. OKAY YEAH. THAT'S. 
          RIGHT. ALL RIGHT. MOVING ON TO THE SECOND ON OUR AGENDA. BOARD MEMBERS WILL REVIEW THE CALL FOR ARTISTS FOR THE PHASE THREE WALKING TRAILS. ART INSTALLATION IN 2025. INCLUDED INCLUDED IN THE REVIEW AND CONSIDERATION WILL BE THE BUDGET FOR THIS ART PROJECT. OKAY, IF YOU WILL TAKE A LOOK IN YOUR PACKET, I HOPE THAT ALL OF YOU HAVE HAD A CHANCE TO READ IT. AND I HAVE ADDED THAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR METAL OR BRONZE, SOME TYPE OF METAL OR BRONZE, I DIDN'T THINK THAT WE WANTED SOMETHING IN STONE OR, SOME TYPE OF AN ARMATURE OUT OF CONCRETE. IF, IF WE'VE GOT THE DEER IN BRONZE. AND THE BUDGET, I DIDN'T TAKE ANYTHING OUT FOR CONTINGENCY OR FOR, MAINTENANCE BECAUSE THERE'S ENOUGH IN THE FUND TO TAKE CARE OF THAT IN THE BALANCE THAT'S LEFT OVER, WHICH IS 74,000. AND THAT WOULD BE FOR SONNY'S PIECE. SO IT GIVES A LITTLE WIGGLE ROOM IN THERE. IT'S GOING TO BE A LITTLE MORE DIFFICULT TO FIND SOMEONE TO DO BRONZE FOR 60,000. 
          BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO LOWER IT ANY LOWER THAN THAT. MAY I ASK, IS THIS, EMAIL PART OF THAT CALL? THIS EMAIL. THAT WAS IT SAYS GREETINGS, CAROL. IS THIS PART OF THAT? OH, NO, THAT'S FOR OUR NEXT ITEM. YES, MA'AM. THANK YOU, I AGREE ABOUT THE BRONZE. HAVING THE BRONZE, FOR THE NATIVE AMERICAN HUNTER. I ALSO AGREE. I WANTED TO SAY I REMEMBER WHEN I AGREE BRONZE 
          [00:20:07]
WOULD LOOK BETTER RATHER THAN THE STONE. SO WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THE BOW AS WELL. THE BOW, WHICH MY GUN. ARE WE GOING TO HAVE THE BOW AND THE ARROW THAT WE TALKED ABOUT LAST TIME. WELL, THE WAY THE WAY IT WAS ADVERTISED IS THAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR A HUNTER, A NATIVE AMERICAN HUNTER, THERE'S THREE TRIBES THAT HUNTED IN THIS AREA COMANCHE, WICHITA, AND CADDO. SO IT ALLOWS THE ARTIST TO BE NONDESCRIPT AND DESCRIPTIVE TO A CERTAIN NATIVE AMERICAN TRIBE, WHICH GENERALLY HELPS BECAUSE EVERYONE HAS A DIFFERENT IDEA OF WHAT THOSE DIFFERENT NATIVE AMERICAN TRIBES WOULD LOOK LIKE FACIALLY, SO, YES, I THINK I THINK IT'S SPECIFIC IN THE CALL. 
          WILL THIS BE WITHIN PROXIMITY OF THE DEER THEN BEING ABLE TO SEE WHERE THE PLACEMENT OF WHERE THIS. YES. IF YOU LOOK IN YOUR CALL FOR ARTISTS, THERE'S A SITE PLAN IN THERE. AND THERE'S A BLUE CIRCLE AT THE APPROXIMATE PLACE THAT IT WOULD BE, IT'S GOING AROUND THE OTHER SIDE, LIKE, WHERE THE BENCH IS AS YOU CIRCLE AROUND TO GO TOWARD, THE MEADOW. THAT'S WHERE, SACRED FIRE IS GOING TO GO. SO I THOUGHT, AS YOU MAKE THAT TURN TO GO TOWARD THE CREEK, THE DEER COULD BE IN THAT AREA BELOW WHERE THE BLUE DOT IS, AND THEN THE HUNTER COULD BE WHERE THE BLUE DOT IS. AND IT'S RIGHT BEFORE YOU GET INTO THAT TREE AREA. THAT'S COVERED. AND THEN THE CREEK. IT LOOKS LIKE A PERFECT SPOT BECAUSE YOU'RE ABOUT TO ENTER AND IT'S RIGHT THERE IN THE FOREST I LIKE IT, THANK YOU. I SEE THAT THE NOTE IN HERE ABOUT THE CURRENT COMMISSION PROJECT, THE WHITETAIL. WHITETAIL DEER IN BRONZE. 
          THANKS. SO SORRY. YOU'RE SO ANNOYING. SO I GUESS MY QUESTION IS, ARE WE MAKING IT A SPECIFIC NOTE THAT FOR A COUPLING NATIVE AMERICAN HUNTERS SCULPTURE TO GO WITH IT, ARE WE MAKING A SPECIFIC NOTE THAT SAYS THAT THE ARROWS, ASSUMING THAT THE HUNTER IS ACTUALLY INDEED PULLING BACK ON HIS BOW, RESEMBLE THE ARROWS THAT ARE ALREADY ON THE DEER SCULPTURE? YES BUT THIS PART OF THE PROPOSAL IS JUST TO GET THE APPLICATIONS. LOOK AT THEIR PREVIOUS WORK. ONCE WE HAVE OUR THREE SEMIFINAL ARTISTS, WE WILL SHOW THEM THE DEER. OKAY I WAS JUMPING. I DIDN'T WANT THE DEER IN THE CALL BECAUSE THAT IS SONNY'S PRIVATE DESIGN. BUT WE CAN SHOW A PICTURE OF IT, A QUICK PICTURE, SO THAT THE SEMIFINAL ARTISTS, BEFORE THEY GO BACK AND MAKE THEIR DESIGNS UP, WILL KNOW WHAT THE OTHER ONE LOOKS LIKE. ALL RIGHT. YEAH, I WAS JUMPING AHEAD. SORRY. AND I AGREE. I THINK WE SHOULD BE VERY CLEAR AT THAT POINT. I KNOW IT'S SOME TIME AWAY, BUT WE SHOULD MAKE IT CLEAR THAT WE DO WANT THERE TO BE SOME KIND OF. IT'S SUPPOSED TO MARRY THE OTHER SCULPTURE. SO THE CALL GOES LIVE THIS SUNDAY. OKAY ACTUALLY I'M GOING TO, I'M GOING TO POST IT TONIGHT. OH OKAY. EXCELLENT ALL RIGHT. AND MOVING ON TO, TO OUR AGENDA ITEM NUMBER THREE. 
          CONSIDER AND ACT UPON A SELECTION PANEL FOR THE 2025 CALL FOR ARTISTS PHASE THREE. 
          NUMBER TWO WALKING TRAILS. YES. YOU'RE CORRECT, A MOTION FOR AGENDA. ITEM NUMBER TWO. I SECOND. I WILL PUT FORTH A MOTION TO CONSIDER AND ACT UPON A SELECTION PANEL FOR THE 2025 CALL FOR ARTISTS PHASE THREE WALKING TRAILS. SORRY, MY BAD, PUT FORTH A MOTION FOR THE CALL FOR ARTISTS FOR THE PHASE THREE WALKING TRAILS ART PROJECT INSTALLATION FOR 25, TO INCLUDE AND REVIEW THE CONSIDERATION FOR THE BUDGET FOR THIS ART PROJECT. I SECOND THE MOTION. THIS IS MY
