At this time of year, most of the Boards & Commission are discussing the Work Plans that they will present to City Council. Since the Public Art Commission is being phased out, to be replaced by an Arts and Culture Commission, they will not prepare a Work Plan for 2025.
They commissioned several pieces of art during 2024, and staff will review the status each project.
- New Loveland Mine Park ($53K)
- Clear Creek Trail ($25K)
- DeLong Park ($75K) *
- Triangle Park (Yucca Seed Pods in Limestone - budget unspecified)
- Ulysses Park ($92K)
*A long-time resident of the East Street neighborhood has offered to contribute $25K toward the cost of the DeLong Park artwork, in memory of her late husband. The Commission will decide whether to accept the contribution, and if so, will provide an acknowledgment of the gift. The meeting memo does not mention whether there will some acknowledgement on the art installation itself.
This morning, they will provide their thoughts on the artwork to be commissioned for the new city hall. The City plans to dedicate 1% of the construction budget to public art. At this time, they estimate that the art budget will be about $470K. Staff is asking whether the art should be concentrated in and near the new building or if it should be spread into Vanover Park or even as far as Washington Avenue.
