Committee Reports:
Public Art Committee—a) BC Signs (for $600) put the ART banner up and will take it down when the
mural goes up. The paper will be present for the mural hanging. B) The Saffee’s walk-through project
has the possibility of backing by Cancer organizations. Lucia showed samples of tiles and described the
basic idea for the “Fountain of Hopes.” C) Tim Divine is near completion on his table.
Jill Snodgrass came to thank the Commission for the mini-grant support and updated us on the progress
of First Fridays Art Strolls. Twenty-seven artist/ participants were at the first event, with an additional
ten already signed on for the next.
D) Weather permitting, Daniel Howeth is on his last pouring for the sculpture. He is still projecting a late
June or July completion. A rough time line for art installations was drawn on the white board.

F) Broadway Shell moved the bus to Capital Sand Workshop. The Linn State Tech people can work on it
this fall. Lucia will further seek Janice’s council and advice on the logistics of the project. G) The
possibility of a book-themed sculpture at the Leslie/Stadium Roundabout was discussed. H) Dennis
Holiday approached Lucia about the possibility of a downtown mural showing the historic progression of
downtown Jefferson City. An artist’s rendering of the project was viewed and locations were initially
considered.
Fundraising Committee—Luann updated the commission on the Wine Event. Twenty-two or twenty-
three artists are confirmed for tables. Food contributors are still being sought. Seven wineries are
committed, so far. Lucia will speak with the banks, and it is hoped that each commissioner will find two
sponsors.
Marketing Committee—Emilee is meeting with Debbie about the Web site. Debbie found a host for the
JCARTS.COM Site for $35 per annum. DK moved and Cary seconded the authorization of $35 per year
for the web site. The motion carried on a voice-vote, without dissention.
Discussion about the November meeting yielded a potential November 19 date, with no meeting in
December. The June 25 and July 23 meetings will begin at 6:00p.m. Luann moved and Cary seconded
adjournment. Upon voice-vote approval, Lucia adjourned the meeting at 7:54 p.m.
