The work was reviewed and comments will be presented to the artist for the creation of the final design in February. 7) Public Art Master Plan Discussion Mrs. Farmer explained that there was money in the budget to hire a contractor to help create the master plan. However, there is still a lot of basic information that needs to be gathered and discussed. Board Member Colandro suggested having a workshop with the board to specifically begin the work on this. A date will be determined.

8) Chrysalis Launcher Mrs. Farmer reached out to the current owner of the original property where the Chrysalis Launcher was originally intended. The owner was curious to know what the people in the Village of the Arts wanted done with the first piece of public art installed in Bradenton. The Chrysalis Launcher was discussed by the board in June, and at that time they felt that it would be better served by being placed in more of a park setting potentially the CRA property, and that was still the general sentiment. Mrs. Farmer said she would reach out to the CRA to see if that was still an option. 9) Other Discussion/New Business Board Member Colandro mentioned that an old building will be torn down. The new Public Works complex is in the design phase and the antique pump is being considered for public art. Mrs. Farmer brought up the signs that will be used in the Mineral Springs Park as part of the complete design by artist Reinaldo Correa. It was suggested that an “Interpretation team” be assembled of historians who are familiar with the site, along with other stakeholders that can contribute to the conversation, ensuring that the information is accurate and what the community wants to portray. 10) Adjourn Board Member Colandro made the motion to adjourn the meeting. Board Member Turner seconded and the motion passed 4/0. Meeting was adjourned at 10:19 am.

PUBLIC ART ADVISORY BOARD MEETING MINUTES November 28, 2023 at 8:30 am The Bishop Museum of Science and Nature 201 10 th St. W. Bradenton, FL 34205 In Attendance: Public Art Advisory Board (PAAB) Members: Chair Lauren Aristizabal, Vice Chair Laura McKeithen Kathy Simon-McDonald, Joe Collins, Robin Singer, and Edna Diaz Morales Absent: Sarah Colandro and Christine Turner CRA Staff: Dr. Jeff Burton, Executive Director, Jean G. Farmer, Public Art Coordinator Visitors: Mary Fragapane and Jeramiah Bowman 1) Meeting Call to Order Meeting was called to order at 8:29 am by Chair Aristizabal. 2) Citizen Comments on Items Not on the Agenda None 3) Minutes from Board Meeting 10-31-2023 Board Member Simon-McDonald made the motion to approve the minutes. Board Member Collins seconded and the motion passed 4/0. 4) Introduction of Student Board Member, Edna Diaz Morales Ms. Dias Morales introduced herself and told the board she is a senior at Manatee High School. The rest of the board introduced themselves and welcomed her to the board. 5) Update from Public Art Coordinator a. Mineral Springs Park The Artist Agreement for the Mineral Springs Park Sculpture was pulled from the agenda and will go before the CRA board on December 19 th. c. Maintenance on Public Art Pieces The downtown art bike racks are being powder coated by AGG Restoration and will be back in operation in a few weeks. They are also repairing the wooden bench on the marble orb that is in front of the shops at the City Center Parking Facility. d. Sidewalk Poetry Stamping The sidewalk stamp template arrived yesterday, so the board was able to see it. The goal is to use it on upcoming sidewalk projects to learn the process while preparing for a call for poets. 3

e. Signal Box Wraps Mrs. Farmer presented the technical aspects of creating the signal box wraps from original artwork and asked the board for their opinions on the process. They felt the process was not too onerous and that staff should get started on the call for artists. 6) Mural City Center Parking Facility Looking for a project that could be facilitated in a relatively short time, the northwest side of the City Center Parking Facility was identified as a potential place for a mural. Local artist, Mary Fragapane was recently vetted during the jury process of The Met apartment complex. Ms. Fragapane introduced herself and gave a brief overview of her background and design process for a project such as this. The first step is to go before the City Council for approval of the wall for a mural. Ms. Fragapane will create a design that will come back to the PAAB for approval before being presented to the CRA Board. 7) Judging of School District of Manatee County Banner Art Jeramiah Bowman, Visual and Performing Arts Specialist of the School District of Manatee County brought over 200 original pieces of student artwork from over ten schools that were reviewed By the Public Art Advisory Board for display starting in January 2024 in downtown Bradenton, the Riverwalk, and the Village of the Arts. 8) Other Discussion/New Business Mrs. Farmer updated the board on new changes in the CRA. The advisory boards will now be called “Community Advisory Committees” (CAC). The Public Art Advisory Board (PAAB) By-Laws and Resolution are being reviewed by legal to have them align more closely with the general CAC outline. The CRA is working on some new grants, and one will be a matching public art grant on private property. This board will be asked to review the art for those. The PAAB meetings are now going to be once a quarter, and if a special meeting needs to be called, that is still possible. The meeting place will eventually be moving from the Bishop Museum to the CRA office located in City Hall. The goal is to have virtual capabilities as well. 4) Adjourn Board Member Simon-McDonald made the motion to adjourn the meeting. Board Member McKeithen seconded and the motion passed 4/0. Meeting was adjourned at 10:27 am. 4
