SUMMARY STATEMENT:
In keeping with the City of McCall Public Art Policies, adopted by City Council June 29, 2012, a volunteer selection committee recently reviewed qualifications from ten (10) Pacific
Northwest artists and chose three (3) finalist artists to invite to submit specific proposals for public artwork to be installed in the Alpine Playhouse Plaza, a small public gathering
space that will be created next to the Alpine Playhouse and within the Fir Street right of way as part of the City’s larger sidewalk connections project. The attached letters of agreement
establish proposal submittal requirements and a payment of $500 to each finalist artist as compensation to create site-specific designs for artwork at the Alpine Playhouse Plaza. These
specific design proposals will then be used to gain community input into final artwork selection, which will be brought before City Council for approval.
The Letter of Agreement has been reviewed by the City Attorney and has been signed by each finalist artist:
Matt Babcock, Seattle, WA
Angela Marino-Heidel, Portland, OR
C.J. Rench – Hood River, OR
The Alpine Playhouse Plaza public art project is funded by an Idaho Commission on the Arts grant ($10,000) received by the City matched by City general fund allocation for public art
($11,500).
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve the Letters of Agreement for Heidel, Rench, and Babcock and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
