High iPublic Art Application Motion: sculpture o y Jim Davidsonits location I Road is approvedsatisfy the Art in Public Places requirement related construction on a new clubhouse igh Ridge Country . (Exhibit ) Meeting Minutes Art Advisory Board Boynton Beach, Florida January 14, 2021 (Heard out of order.) Chair McQuire commented some of the Board members brought this item up with inquiries about the item and approval. Larry Zabek, Zabek and Associates, project Manager for the High Ridge Country Club and Ryan Artim, the General Manager of the Country Club were present. Mr. Zabek explained the initial review of the project by staff was exempt. When they went through the site plan process with the City, it was referred to legal who determined they had to have art. They met with City leadership to move the project over. They paid the administrative portion of the AIPP and went forward with construction of the project. When closing out the project, they were concerned they had not complied and they thought they had, so they reached an agreement to relocate an existing statute on the course and putting in on Hypoluxo Road. The club is private and gated, and it is not something the public could easily see, so as they worked with staff, and came up with a solution. They worked with the prior AIPP Manager who reviewed and approved the piece. Mr. Zabek showed the location of the project. Hypoluxo Road is a heavily travelled road averaging over 43K trips a day between Jog Road and 1-95. The primary view is for people coming from the east. The sculpture was by Jim Davidson. It is a bronze statute and it is about six and a half feet tall. The installed statute was formerly behind the Clubhouse. The way they moved forward with replacement of the clubhouse was to build the new clubhouse while the existing remained and then and then demolition of it when the new clubhouse was completed. It allowed them to reconfigure the clubhouse area and they made a few changes to the golf course which allowed them to relocate the sculpture to Hypoluxo Road to satisfy the AIPP requirement. Mr. Zabek thought the sculpture was acquired 25 years ago, and he was aware of it 18 years ago. They had a professional appraisal done reflecting the value as $11 OK. Installation of the piece cost $19K and they paid the 30% administrative fee of$51 K as part of the building permit for a total of$180K which was 1% of the cost of the $180M project. Chair McQuire asked if the sculpture was leaning slightly or if was the posture of the golfer. Mr. Artim thought the statute may be leaning, but he and the maintenance team will check it and make sure it is level. Vice Chair Levine commented the piece was manufactured art and she thought it had to be one-of-a-kind art which is what was unclear. Mr. Zabek did not have the answer, and they will try to research. They have looked and they shared what they found. There are some older members who may remember. The piece there now is valued much less than what was promised and it was a purchased piece of art that was placed. The issue is an older item on the agenda. The item in her mind is not settled. Vice Chair Levine felt the issue was not settled. 2 Meeting Minutes Art Advisory Board Boynton Beach, Florida January 14, 2021 Mr. Klauber agreed with Vice Chair Levine's comments and they want proof the requirement of original art is satisfied. He thought there should be some research done by a validated historian to determine if this was a copy that others could purchase or if it was an original piece of art. They do not have any proof to base their recommendation on. Ms. Zell felt the piece was an old piece of art that was moved. She did not see how it would satisfy the requirement. She thought it had to be new. Ms. Moodie had concerns about the monetary value of what is there. Based on the Public Art Ordinance a certain percentage should be spent on the art based on the cost of the project. It was difficult to determine where that stands in the value of the project. Attorney Jim Cherof, explained this matter is before the Board and was before the Board once before. The issue is to implement the policy they have which is to approve or disapprove the piece. He reviewed past minutes and they are describing a procedure for validation of value he did not believe was used before. He urged caution before proceeding not to create a new policy standard for reviewing a valuation of a piece of art. Someone spoke to the issue on the record and he had not heard any contrary view other than opinions of Board members. Opinions of Board Members do not have the same type of weight as the presenter has in terms of telling them what their position is with regard to the value. He recommended the Board either approve or disapprove the action. After the Board decides, the City Administration will deal with the next steps. Mr. Klauber disagreed. The issue he brought up is under a different provision, which was an original piece of art purchased by the developer. It was not bought as part of the site plan, it was moved and he thought that was the legal issue. He wanted the developer to come back and explain that so the Board could be assured the statute will satisfy the provision or not. Attorney Cherof did not see it as a legal issue tonight, it is a factual issue. If the Board does not think the proper evidence is before the Board on which to make a decision when there is a motion to approve the art project, they should vote no. Mr. Klauber wanted to ask the developer for more information. Chair McQuire requested Mr. Zabek restate the costs and fees related. The Permit fee for the project was $18M which generates a 1% of$180K. In 2018, as part of the original building permit, $51 K of the administrative fee of the AIPP was paid and they have the receipt. They have a certified appraisal that the value of the Statute, and they do believe was an original piece of artwork purchased sometime before 2000 for $110K. The pedestal, relocation and landscaping using contract work was $19K and all together, the total was $180K. Chair McQuire thought the valuation of$110K the 1% allows the business to Commission their own work and go through the Board. The owner picked the artist and the Board was to approve it or disapprove it. In this instance, the developer selected 3 Meeting Minutes Art Advisory Board Boynton Beach, Florida January 14, 2021 the Ordinance is gray pertained to commissioning work, and not really putting old work anew, it is about giving opportunities to artists and the Board did not feel it really was satisfied. Ms. Moodie was looking at action item and thought maybe the attorney can explain the AIPP requirement. She was unsure what it meant. What the motion meant. She was concerned the AIPP requirement. Mr. Weiss explained the motion is a general motion. He clarified the Board is evaluating what was presented against the AIPP Ordinance and its requirement. The motion, as written says the sculpture and its location satisfies the Ordinance. Attorney Cherof agreed. Ms. Zell thought they should support the requirement of the AIPP Ordinance, and did not believe it satisfied the Ordinance as it was not a new piece of art. Motion Ms. Zell motioned they reject it and they spend the 1% for a new piece of artwork for the golf course. Vice Chair Levine seconded the motion. The motion unanimously passed. Attorney Cherof advised the City will deal with the matter administratively going forward. Informational Items from the Board Ms. Moodie welcomed Mr. Weiss and commented she reviewed him online. She hoped he would share information about the Art in Communities project with the Board in the future. Mr. Weiss replied he would. He believes in art work that coordinates and benefits the community. II. Announcements/Reports A. Additional Materials for Daniel Heart Center Mosaic Application Package (Exhibit B) Chair McQuire explained the Board requested to see more of the artist's work and learn more about the history and the work. The members viewed information, which Ms. Blank's presented. Ms. Moodie noted the Board had viewed art and the financial components of the art in the past, but she liked the piece and the way the cost was included in the presentation in this instance. Mr. Weiss noted the price per square foot of the art was very reasonable. B. Maintenance of Dewey Park Lanterns in February 4 Meeting Minutes Art Advisory Board Boynton Beach, Florida January 14, 2021 Ms. Blanks scheduled maintenance of the piece for January 29th. They have a Fine Art maintenance person who will clean the lanterns, fix the electric and ensure the pieces look nice for the kinetic event. Mr. Weiss pointed out the artist who created the lantern has had her career take off and has a national reputation for her work. The City was lucky to have her pieces. C. Boynton Beach Mall Mural Mr. Weiss explained the City would like to create a new sign ordinance and look murals in the ordinance. The City is requesting AIPP delay taking any action on the piece and wait until it is time to re-evaluate and the Ordinance is drafted. Mr. Weiss noted Murals is not included in Art in Public Places Ordinances. It has a separate section under murals. The delay in approval was in case they added a program in the future, at which time they can determine what a mural is in relation to a sign. Ms. Matos explained the mall mural was painted and the City was not notified. The City learned of it through reports from the public and staff reviewed the Code. Because the City was looking at implementing murals, they want to ensure the murals are congruent. They want to review everything and make sure it fits in with the sign code they are developing, which is totally different from murals in the art program which Community Standards is handling. They want to ensure murals will fit in with the new mural program they are instituting. D. Boynton Beach Cultural & Arts Center Exhibitions a. Nicole Gallucio Exhibit, February and March 2021 Chair McQuire noted the Board had previously viewed Nicole Gallucio's work. Ms. Blanks explained the artwork would be installed the first week in February and Ms. Gallucio is excited to exhibit at the Center. She met with Ms. Gallucio last week regarding the placement of the artwork. She would like to do live painting and they will explore options to draw attention to the new Cultural Center. b. Sonya Sanchez Arias Paper Dresses Ms. Blank's explained the members had also previously viewed the dresses, which are currently in storage. They will be brought to the Center after the kinetic event. Chair McQuire thanked Vice Chair Levine for her work obtaining the dresses. Mr. Weiss asked if Ms. Gallucio and Ms. Sanchez Arias works would be exhibited together and learned they would not. They have two dresses and may be able to obtain a third. c. Artist with Autism Exhibit, April 2021 Ms. Blanks explained they were sending out submission forms for the artists through FAU and the City to apply to submit art for the event which will be held for the full month 5 Meeting Minutes Art Advisory Board Boynton Beach, Florida January 14, 2021 of April. Staff is in the very preliminary stage and she will give further updates. They are currently gathering artists. Vice Chair Levine asked when the official opening of the Civic Center was and if they ever got art from rock stars for the opening. Ms. Matos explained the Cultural Center Grand Opening was a moving target based on COVID. They were planning to open it but COVID worsened. She explained if anyone wants to see the Center, they could arrange a tour and she was excited to showcase the building at the Kinetic event. The City was hesitant to launch the opening because it is an indoor event and they are trying to determine how to do so while keeping all safe. They are planning to move forward with kinetic portion of the event, but at this point, the kinetic event may be the official launch. If something changes, they will apprise the Board. Ms. Sanchez Arias dresses will be in the lobby of the building coinciding with the Kinetic Event. Ms. Matos will speak with Mr. Weiss about having the dresses there. Chair McQuire thought they could showcase the dresses in concert with Ms. Gallucio's work. Vice Chair Levine understood Ms. Gallucio's pieces will open the Cultural Center in March after the kinetic event. Ms. Matos thought the goal was to open the cultural center with those installed after the kinetic event. Currently, the Cultural Center is only open during specific program times and they have a specific protocol as to how many people could be inside. The dresses are still in storage. Ms. Matos and Mr. Weiss will discuss it. Mr. Weiss requested clarification of the Board wanted the Gallucio pieces and the dresses Chair McQuire knew Ms. Gallucio only had one wall on which to exhibit, but there would only be five or six pieces. Ms. Matos explained wherever they go, it will be in the most prominent place possible. Chair McQuire suggested launching the building in February and removing the pieces in March for a few days. Ms. Matos explained the public is not going in and out of the building. They only enter for specific programs . Ms. Moodie was excited to see the dresses and she has not seen the art. She wanted to know how many things they were highlighting. Chair McQuire explained Ms. Gallucio's work depicted butterflies and flowers of primary-type coloring. They run in tandum with the butterfly garden theme at the Town Square. There are large and medium pieces. There was a holdlup due to lighting and a rail, which was remedied and the art could be there potentially during the event. The Kinetic art would not be there as it would be in the theater on the second floor, so the art would be there are you walk by before going, to the interior. Some of the suggestions was to display the dresses in a prominent place after the event. He had made a comment to put the dresses out with Ms. Gallucio's art for a month in February and remove them during the kinetic event, but it may be logistically a nightmare and it was up to Mr. Weiss and Ms. Matos Mr. Weiss explained it could be a duo show, but they need to do public relations work independently and ,he thought the dresses should go in independently and he recommended they be displayed in March so as not to compete with the kinetic art. Ms. Moodie commented she would be in favor of staggering the art in different section, but 6 Meeting Minutes Art Advisory Board Boynton Beach, Florida January 14, 2021 not all being displayed at the same time. Vice Chair Levine kinetic will be in the gym and in its own areas. Ms. Sanchez Aria originally was going to give the dresses to Boynton Beach as a gift. The City could own the dresses. They held a site tour, and if they want to own them to teach people about upcycling and paper, the artist would give them the dresses. Chair McQuire explained the Board had expressed concern about holding onto work in perpetuity, maintenance and perpetuity. He thought the pieces could be damaged and then they would have to decommission the art. He thought the Board could consider the pieces are permanent pieces. E. Any Updates on Kinetic Exhibit III. Action Items B. December 10, 2020 Minutes Motion: The December 10, 2020 meeting minutes are approved as written or amended. (Exhibit A). Mr. Silverio noted a change on page 7 on the fourth motion to disapprove the piece. He noted it was Ms. Moody who seconded the motion. Motion Vice Chair Levine moved to approve the minutes as amended. Ms. Moodie seconded the motion. The motion unanimously passed. . C. Taco Bell Public Art Application Motion: The amendment to the Taco Bell Public Art Application to relocate to the proposed artwork from west to the east side of the building is approved as shown in (Exhibit C.) Chair McQuire noted the applicant was looking to relocate the mural to a better location. Ms. Blanks gave a short presentation on the piece. The mural would front onto Federal Highway and have greater visibility. Motion Mr. Silverio moved to approve the amendment to the Taco Bell Public Art Application to relocate the proposed artwork from the west to the east side of the building as in Exhibit C. Ms. Lorenz seconded the motion. The motion unanimously passed. (Mx. Ratcliff joined the meeting 7.38 p.m.) Chair McQuire requested Mr. Weiss convey to the artist the Board was happy with the change in location. 7 Meeting Minutes Art Advisory Board Boynton Beach, Florida January 14, 2021 D. High Ridge Country Club Public Art Application Motion: The sculpture "Gofman" by Jim Davidson and its location on Hypoluxo Road is approved to satisfy the Art in Public Places requirement related to the construction on a new clubhouse by High Ridge Country Club. (Exhibit E) This item was addressed earlier in the meeting. E. Kinetic Sculpture Exhibit Artwork Approval (If required) Motion: The sculpture titled by artist is approved for the 2021 Kinetic Art Exhibit. (Exhibit D) Mr. Weiss reviewed additional art: by Rubem Robierb and Byron Caplan. Another artwork by Rubem Robierb is in the process of fabricating. They would like to include the piece in the Town Square during the kinetic art, but not as part of the kinetic as it is not kinetic. He presented it because it was a great opportunity for Boynton Beach. Mr. Robierb made the piece Healing Heart in honor of those helping with COVID, which will be around for another 12 months. Mr. Weiss had not seen any work in the US honoring COVID workers. Mr. Robierb could accelerate the fabrication to display at the event. The piece would be on display for the same amount of time as the kinetic works, and the Art Advisory Board would need to spend about $8K from the Art Reserve Account, which has $140K. It was a great opportunity for the City to create a work unique to the U.S. honoring these workers. Mx. Ratcliff asked how long the art would be on loan for and learned it would be a year. Mx. Ratcliff asked if the person stepping into the art would be touching the piece. It was explained there is a four-foot space. It is an interactive piece where the person could stand in between the pieces. Mx. Ratcliff was concerned people touching the piece designed to honor medical workers would spread COVID. Mr. Silverio thought the piece was similar to the one already selected for the event. Mx. Ratcliff expressed concern about the event, in general. Mr. Klauber asked if something could be done so there would be no touching. Chair McQuire thought it was a nice gesture to medical personnel and the piece was interesting. Vice Chair Levine thought it was fabulous and the artist is a high-profile artist. She thought if the piece was marketed properly to the right channels and the right way, it is about marketing of the piece and who they have in Boynton and what caliber of artist they are able to draw to Boynton. They already have kinetic and they have art. They did not have to only have kinetic. He is a well-recognized, international artist and he would draw a very super interesting crowd. Ms. Lorenz asked if it could hold the piece off to next year as they switch out the sculptures every year. Chair McQuire thought this is an opportunity for the community to come out in a safe way, experience art and along the way see recognition for people who have help us. 8 Meeting Minutes Art Advisory Board Boynton Beach, Florida January 14, 2021 Ms. Zell thought the piece was a great opportunity and when a participant puts themselves in the piece it is kinetic. She supported including the piece and the nod it gives to the medical community. Chair McQuire explained this is the second actual piece Mr. Robierb will have and he may have an augmented reality piece. Mr. Silverio asked how much was being paid for the butterfly piece. Mr. Silverio thought the Board would be spending twice the money to one artist and one piece is already in the event. Mr. Silverio thought the same principal applied to walking in front of the butterfly wings and the same concept as in Healing Heart, they are similar. Mx. Ratcliff would rather see the money put towards a different artist in a minority status. She hoped to help someone step up, who could make something beautiful. Mr. Weiss explained the artist fee paid is $1,500. The other$6K is because both pieces will be completely repainted after it was shown in addition to bringing the piece up and installing it. Ms. Moodie thought the piece was nice and a tribute to the medical profession. She agreed with Ms. Lorenz and favored using the piece next year and maybe reserving the piece because they will still be dealing with the effect of COVID then. Vice Chair Levine understood Mx. Ratcliff's comments, but pointed out the Board Members were given an opportunity from Ms. Coles-Dobay for the Board's input on kinetic artists. The members have had all this year and they have not netted out any artists on their own, and the event is in March. Mx. Ratcliff understood the piece was not supposed to be part of the kinetic event, and she thought it was separate discussion. The piece would be on loan for a year and they have the opportunity to look outside of the normal scope of artists. Vice Chair Levine explained this is an artist they had not had before or had access too, which they now do due to Ms. Zucker's contacts. The piece is timely and it works toward COVID or for their event. She wanted to take advantage of the opportunity. The piece may work a year from now, but they have the kinetic event every two years. She favored grabbing the opportunity to have a second piece from an international that was already creating a piece for the Board and make it a big event. Maybe they could sell it and make money for the City. Chair McQuire explained the Board should support the artists and help sell the art. Mr. Klauber agreed with Chair McQuire, especially this year. Artists are putting their health at risk which makes the pieces particularly sellable and he supported using the piece. Motion Mr. Silverio moved to postpone the piece to next year. When the City moves the pieces they currently have would be the best time to substitute the piece. 9 Meeting Minutes Art Advisory Board Boynton Beach, Florida January14, 2021 Chair McQuire clarified the motion was to table to next year when kinetic is rotated out off year of kinetic. Ms. Lorenz seconded the motion. Vice Chair Levine noted if they postpone installation of the piece to 2022, the piece would lose its relevance. She asserted displaying the piece now would be more timely, there will be more traffic and visibility during the event, and in 2022, although they will have a walkable downtown, she did not see there would be as many people. The marketability, salability and viewability is now and they should take advantage of it. Vote The motion to postpone failed 3-4 (Ms. Lorenz, Ms. Moodie and Mr. Silverio voting aye) (Mr. Klauber, Chair McQuire, Vice Chair Levine and Ms. Zell dissenting.) Motion Ms. Zell moved to accept the piece in the show at a cost of$8K. Vice Chair Levine seconded the motion. The motion failed 3-4 (Chair McQuire, Ms. Moodie, Ms. Lorenz and Mr. Silverio dissenting.) Mr. Weiss explained the budget. The $8K would not come out of the shows budget; it would come out of the reserve budget. Ms. Moodie requested clarification. If they accept the piece, they would pay the fees and accept it, it would not be a part of the kinetic exhibit. The piece would not be included on the website or brochure for kinetic, it is not coming out of kinetic art budget, its coming from Al PIP Budget, or they can have the install date after the show. Chair McQuire commented they have space available. Vice Chair Levine reiterated it could be a marketing piece for COVID. Mr. Silverio reiterated this artist already has a spot in the kinetic event, and now he would take two artists. He asked if there was any marketing being undertaken for the piece to first responders. He did not think the piece should be exhibited at all. A question was posed if the piece could be installed prior to the event and learned it could not. Motion Ms. Moodie moved to get the piece on loan and get an install date after the kinetic event. The motion died for lack of a second. Motion 10 Meeting Minutes Art Advisory Board Boynton Beach, Florida January 14, 2021 Vice Chair Levine moved to install the piece before the kinetic as soon as it is ready and the Board accept installing it and marketing it as a fabulous, non-kinetic piece of art before or in conjunction with kinetic, but not as a kinetic piece. She moved to accept a different piece of art from Rubem. Mr. Klauber seconded the motion. Mr. Weiss was advised today by Ms. Zucker Mr. Robierb signed the contract today to have the work fabricated and he guaranteed it would be ready before the kinetic install a week ahead of time. Vice Chair Levine reworded her motion. She understood the piece would be ready before the kinetic and it was a piece good for the City. Motion Vice Chair Levine moved to accept it and have it ready for kinetic. Mr. Klauber seconded the motion. The motion passed 4-1 (Ms. Moodie and Mr. Silverio abstaining and Ms. Lorenz dissenting.) Mr. Weiss showed another piece by Byron Caplan. The artist agreed to make the art for the $1,500 fee. The piece was spinning paintings on poles for the outdoors. Chair McQuire commented all the pieces have to be on a pedestal on the street and an outdoor piece for a year. Chair McQuire liked the piece. Motion Ms. Moodie moved the sculpture presented by Caplan is approved for the 20/21 art exhibit. Mr. Klauber seconded the motion. The motion unanimously passed. Chair McQuire thanked Mr. Weiss for bringing the piece to the Board. It will help improve the quality of the art. Mr. Weiss hoped to find more kinetic pieces for the kinetic event by the next meeting. F. Unfinished Business: Action Items (None) IV. New Business A. Nominations and Election of Chair Chair McQuire appointed Mr. Silverio to run the elections since Chair McQuire wished to remain as Chair. Mr. Silverio asked for nominations for the position of Chair. Mr. Klauber nominated Courtlandt McQuire. No other nominations were received. Vice Chair Levine seconded the nomination. The motion unanimously passed. Mr. Silverio passed the gavel back to Chair McQuire. Chair McQuire thanked all for the nomination and advised he would work very hard for the Board. 11 Meeting Minutes Art Advisory Board Boynton Beach, Florida January 14, 2021 B. Nominations and Election of Vice-Chair Ms. Zell nominated Marcia Levine. Ms. Levine accepted. Mr. Silverio nominated Susan Oyer, but she had resigned. Mr. Klauber seconded the motion. The motion unanimously passed. The terms are for one year. is Chair Levine commented it has been a hell of a year and she looked forward to the future. V. Discussion: (None) V1. Public Comments Eugene Fagan advised he is a member oft Recreation and Parks Board and the lifeguard stations at Oceanfront Park need to be replaced. He is also the Chair of the Greater Boynton Beach Foundation and they raise money for art in Boynton Beach so they could probably fund the proposed endeavor. They want their opinion and feedback with replacing the lifeguard stands the City has with ones similar tothose in out Beach. He asked what they thought about having a competition with local architects and local architectural design students to submit ideas to the Board for new lifeguard stations becoming functioning art. The members of the Board liked the idea. Chair McQuire thought architecture was one oft highest forms of art and it might be a good tie in. Mr. Fagan to the City Manager wasent in ving art all the way down Ocean Boulevard past the Intracoastal and this could be a good tie in. Chair McQuire asked how the concept would be implemented. Mr. Weiss commented, he is friends with the guy who designed the stands in Miami Beach. He noted FAU has quite a large program and they could speak tot faculty about involving the students. He thought there were all kinds of ways, but generally, it of be a direct design competition with a few modest prizes and one person selected as the winner to do the work. They would have to or with Mr. Fagan. Mr. Weiss recommended a direct design competition. Mr. Fagan commented the Recreation and Parks Board and the Greater Boynton Beach Foundation all agreed on the idea. Only approve was needed by the Art Advisory Board. Mr. Weiss suggested the appropriate motion would be to support the idea of new lifeguard stands and direct him and Mr. Fagan to develop a proposal how to solicit design ideas. it McQuire thought the Board should support it. Mr. Fagan will or with Mr. Weiss on how to for the ideas for architectural elements with the beach stands. 12 Meeting Minutes Art Advisory Board Boynton Beach, Florida January 14, 2021 Motion Mr. Silverio moved to support the idea for Mr. Fagan to expect a proposal to approve or reject the project. Ms. Lorenz seconded the motion. The motion unanimously passed. Chair McQuire requested he forward a link or information to Ms. Blanks to distribute to the Board. Mr. Klauber asked if there was a COVID protocol for the kinetic event. Mr. Weiss explained it is a mandatory mask wearing event. They will be limiting the number of people who go to the Cultural Center and maintain a distance of six feet apart: The VIP food will be boxed. The drinkables will also be in separate containers so there will be no mixing. The same would apply to the event on Saturday and Sunday. There will be several large signs that indicate it is a masked, socially distanced event. There will be police and security present. Mx. Ratcliff asked about the areas for people to eat. Mr. Weiss explained he hoped the public would be spread out. Ms. Zell had a list of Boynton Beach restaurants with food trucks she would forward to Mr. Weiss. Mx. Ratcliff also noted there would be a band. She asked how it would be socially distanced. Mr. Weiss thought they may be able to paint circles on the grass. The event is all outside with the exception of the Cultural Center displays which they would monitor and limit the number of people inside. Mx. Ratcliff explained most confrontations occur regarding masks and food and they hoped they had a strategy to protect food service workers. Mx. Ratcliff hoped the Board would contemplate accessibility for the next event. They noted there are some people that cannot attend the event and would like the next event to have a strong digital footprint in terms of accessibility. VII. Future Agenda Items A.

Per the comments from the advisory board from our previous presentation, it was expressed that: 1 - the board had a preference for the finish color for the parking garage "waves" to more closely relate to the aqua and indigo color scheme previously established in the gazebo and portal designs of Phase I. I have revised the above design to echo the referenced color scheme. 2 - the board expressed a desire for the light columns along the waterfront to be dispersed further south to encompass a greater extent of the waterfront. I have relocated the light columns to achieve that desirel. I hope these modifications will be welcomed by the art review board.

Proposal for 2021 Kinetic Art Exhibition Jennings was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico and now resides and works in his studio in Boca Raton, FI where creates his artwork through drawings, canvas paintings & sculpture marquettes. The epiphany was the reali- zation that objects do not need to be limited to their prescribed roles. Jennings reinterpreted the ladder to reveal life forms and reflect social behaviors through his anthropomorphized marquettes. His first two lad- ders, a male & a female, became the best of friends & expanded beyond. Hence, they are trademarked as "My Dear Ladder Friends." Jennings is a Juried artist and has exhibited his canvas art at Jadite Galleries in New York City, New York, sculptures at the Cornell Museum In Delray Beach, FI, The Artist Guild through the Boca Raton Museum of Art, One night Only Premier Gala event held in Boca Raton, and recently held a private exhibition at Jen- nings Residential Studio & Sculpture Garden in Boca Raton. His works of art have been exhibited at both public and private receptions, as well as some of his artworks are maintained in private collections through- out the U.S and Latin America (Buenos Aires, Argentina; Lima Peru.)

Call to Order Kathryn Matos, Assistant City Manager Glenn Weiss, Public Arts Manager Nicole Blanks, Public Art Assistant Chair McQuire called the meeting to order at 5:32 p.m. and thanked all for attending. II. Roll Call Self -introductions were made A quorum was present. Chair McQuire recognized Board Alternate, Martin Klauber, to sit as a regular member for the meeting. III. Amended Agenda Approval Motion Chair McQuire noted the amended agenda did not include the Helping Hands piece by Rubem Robierb. He advised it would be addressed at the next regular meeting. Vice Chair Levine seconded the motion. The motion passed 5-0 (Ms. Moodie and Mr. Silverio abstaining). IV. Hello for Glenn Weiss and Thoughts on Kinetic Art Exhibit Glenn Weiss Kathryn Matos, Assistant City Manager, explained Mr. Weiss comes to the City from Jacksonville, He operates a non-profit public art program in the City of Jacksonville contract out to handle their public art. He has over 30 years of experience in public art in Coral Springs, Broward County, Seattle and Times Square in New York City. He has his Masters in Architecture from Columbia University and has taught such classes at FAU. He and his wife Maria live in Delray Beach. Boynton Beach Art Advisory Board Agenda Package for Feb 11, 2021 Page36 Meeting Minutes Special Art Advisory Board Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida January 6, 2020 Mr. Weiss was happy to be with the City and commented both the staff and officials were welcoming and collaborative. He felt it was a great place to work. He is looking forward to working with the members and has already reached out to some and will get to all the members before the next meeting. In the future, he may give a slide presentation of what he does and what people around the country are doing with public art. He attended the International Kinetic Art and Symposium exhibit twice before so he is familiar with it. He thought that Ms. Coles-Dobay did an amazing job creating and bringing forward the exhibition and that she was an excellent Public Art Manager. He hoped to continue building the Kinetic Event in Florida and the nation and making it a success. III. Announcements/Reports Kinetic Art Weekend: Schedule, Events, etc. Kinetic Art Public Relations Kinetic Art Volunteers Valerie Zucker and Nicole Lewis, Zucker and Lewis were present. Ms. Zucker explained they are excited to work with Mr. Weiss as he has already made great additions to the event and he is up to par with what is occurring. She explained they are embracing the Art Advisory Board and the volunteers and want to hear their ideas and comments. There will offer a youth program and she advised they will need help assembling 200 kits to make large pinwheels that will be distributed to the youth. They will also need help distributing the materials to schools, art students and youth wanting to participate. Help is needed with the setup on the indoor exhibition, handing out the guides, being docents, the event break -down and assistance with the golf carts that will be used at the event. As materials are developed they will contact the members to distribute materials to their friends, family and colleagues. Ms. Zucker explained they developed teams. The first team was the Welcome Information and Merchandise team. They are not sure how to handle the merchandise portion of the event, but Ms. Zucker emphasized a sense of arrival is key. When attendees enter the Cultural Art Center, they will give directions about the indoor and outdoor exhibits, times for art demonstrations and checkpoints, where the restrooms, food and beverages are located, etc. and it is an opportunity to talk to the guests. An ASL Interpreter will be present. The Docent Art Team is part of the Street Team. Volunteers on this team will educate visitors on the events, be savvy about the artists and hand out brochures. They will have to demonstrate the Augmented Reality (AR) app which creates three-dimensional art. She noted with the app, the art can pop up on different platforms and banners. The Security and First Aid Team is essential and will be handled by qualified individuals, but the members should keep their eyes and ears open to take action and be aware of where supervisors, security and first aid individuals are, in case they are needed. 2 Boynton Beach Art Advisory Board Agenda Package for Feb 11, 2021 Page37 Meeting Minutes Special Art Advisory Board Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida January 6, 2020 The Indoor Artist Team are the go -to people. The artists will not bring their staff and may need someone to assist them. These volunteers can talk up the artists and educate attendees about the individual artists displaying on the inside. They should be able to assist a buyer or collector and will also need to keep their cell phones on their person, in case they need to go outside and the artist needs them, they can call them. The Outdoor Team was basically the same as the Inside team, but a major difference was they will be on their feet outside and it may be hot. Green Team volunteers will need to ensure the venue has a clean feel and is comfortable. Public Works will help clean and beautify the area, but if something is overflowing, they should contact someone right away. A general overview regarding the volunteer team was viewed. Chair McQuire commented they will circulate a volunteer sign-up sheet to the members to sign up for a time slot and then distribute it in the community and the list of volunteers they had at the last event. Ms. Zucker would love 30 volunteers, but will take what she could get. The busiest day will be Saturday and there are a lot of last-minute details. They will not need as many volunteers on Sunday. Mr. Weiss advised he created a form allowing the members to go online and sign up to volunteer. He will also add assembling the youth pinwheel materials to the sign-up form. Ms. Moodie noted they had a docent team that was trained in the past and asked if they had access to that team. Ms. Matos explained they have the list and they will send those volunteers the link to sign up. They will also provide training before the event. Chair McQuire noted there were a couple of time slots prior to the event to show up on the Avenue of the Arts. Docents were given a tee-shirt, were educated about the art and a crash course on how things would operate. Mr. Weiss asked if anyone was a volunteer and if there was anything that needed to be improved on. Chair McQuire noted there were lunches and water provided to the volunteers and recalled there were two volunteer shifts held each day. Ms. Zell recalled she passed out water to volunteers on a golf cart. Ms. Moodie thought directions about how to get to the venue were an issue at the last event and it should be clear before this event. Better information was needed as people were driving around as to where they were. Mr. Klauber thought a committee could distribute a map or they could post information for Google directions about where to park before the event would be helpful. Ms. Matos agreed to add it to the website ahead of time and put it on social media as well as a map. Ms. Moodie noted with the website, the map was confusing because it was a map for the last event and not for the upcoming event. The names of the AAB members on the site also needed to be updated. Mr. Klauber asked if they reviewed the website and wanted to put it on the agenda. He thought viewing the website would benefit all the members. Mr. Weiss commented they will switch the website to the Boynton Beach Kinetic website rather than the International Kinetic Event and all the videos will be moved 3 Boynton Beach Art Advisory Board Agenda Package for Feb 11, 2021 Page38 Meeting Minutes Special Art Advisory Board Meeting Boynton Beach, FloridaJanuary 6, 2020 over, so people can have videos of all. They will send a link about where on the City's website the page will be. Ms. Zucker reviewed the kick-off VIP Reception on Friday the 5th at the Kinetic Art Plaza will be from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Attendees will be participating artists, City officials, VIPs, and the media and light bites and beverages will be served. The introductions and quick speeches and the area will be the same area they are using for the Symposium/Artist Panel discussion. Images of where the reception would be held was viewed. The kick off reception was an outdoor event. A question was posed regarding a backup location if there was inclement weather. If there is bad weather, the back-up location would most likely be inside the Cultural Center. The Cultural Center auditorium will be used to display art. Art will not be hanging on the walls or ceiling. It will be set up similarly to a gallery style. The event will be socially distanced and masks mandatory. Ms. Moodie asked if they have a way to monitor how many people are in the building. Mr. Weiss responded they are meeting with the Cultural Center Director about that, but right now they do not have the number. Ms. Moodie asked if they could monitor how many people are participating in the entire event. Chair McQuire suggested giving a docent a hand counter and if they get to a number near capacity, they could address it. It was noted they used a counter a few years ago. Mr. Klauber asked if there was a pathway between the art displays. Ms. Zucker explained the example shown was not a representation of the floor plan. Mr. Weiss responded there will be pathways. Discussion turned to the Youth program. Ms. Zucker advised there is an opportunity for youth to pick up the material kits to make pinwheels, although the participants can make other things. There will be 200 kits youth can sign up for and pick up and there will be first, second and third place awards. The Library will have a sign-up sheet to distribute the kits to art schools and students. The pinwheels are large. Ms. Moodie asked about the ages of the youth and learned it would be grade school up to 17 years old. Ms. Matos explained they are putting up a board and will drill holes in it to line the top of the bookshelves, so when youth drop the pinwheels off, they will be placed in the hole to display their work and labeled with the name of the student. She hoped the Library would get foot traffic as it would be a great way for kids to exhibit their artwork for the public and their families to see. Ms. Zucker explained having speakers or a panel discussion was still taking shape, but there is an opportunity for Sam Champion from WABC and Good Morning America to emcee the event. Lloyd Goradesky will speak from 12:30 to 1 p.m. and Rubem Robierb from 2:30 to 3 p.m. The timeline may change and they are still working out the details. It would be held on a Saturday at the kinetic art plaza outdoors. A back up plan for inclement weather was being discussed. 2 Boynton Beach Art Advisory Board Agenda Package for Feb 11, 2021 Page39 Meeting Minutes Special Art Advisory Board Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida January 6, 2020 Vice Chair Levine queried how many more speakers were needed. Ms. Zucker thought they may have one or two other artists, but they want to confirm if the discussion would be a panel or if it was being limited to just two speakers. She agreed to apprise the Board of the decision. Vice Chair Levine thought Joel Amit or Ron Agam may be interested. Ms. Zucker commented Mr. Agam was not here, but they are working with the gallery owner. Vice Chair Levine thought Rami Rotkopf or his wife would be good panelists as they are conversive about art and two of their artists would be represented. She thought if they sold some of their art, it would be good for the gallery and the City. Ms. Zucker explained event goers will be hungry and thirsty and they have come up with a blend of different food trucks featuring different ethnicities including vegan food trucks. Ms. Zell asked if they considered using Boynton Beach restaurants that have trucks and she suggested That's Amore, Troy's BBQ and Pigsty. Ms. Zucker agreed to review the restaurants that meet the bandwidth of the event. Mr. Klauber agreed the event should use City restaurants first. Chair McQuire requested the members email their suggestions for Boynton based food trucks to himself or Mr. Weiss. The beverage zone will have different beverages and there will be an icy truck. They are working on the alcohol version, but the area will be separate from the food. Ms. Moodie asked if the food and beverage vendors will collect their money or work on a ticket basis and learned the truck vendors will collect the funds and they are currently investigating trucks with beer licenses. Different live music options were reviewed. Ms. Zucker thought the Valerie Tyson Band would be appropriate as they have a diverse selection of music and the CRA uses them. There are two other bands, but this band would play both Saturday and Sunday mostly during the day at the amphitheater. It will offer something for everyone. Chair McQuire thought it was another great dynamic to the show and it would show off the amphitheater. Ms. Zucker discussed the volunteer attire and merchandise sales and handouts. She looked at different tee shirts in the teal color with the logo they have used in the past printed on the front and back and was contemplating having two different colors: one for the docents and another color for the others. They have not confirmed sales of the tee shirts, but they are considering hand sanitizers and masks as giveaways. The company they are dealing with was not a local company, but it was a Palm Beach County business. Mr. Weiss did not think they would print extra tee shirts and sell them, unless the Board felt strongly about it. Mr. Weiss thought they would just print the shirts for the volunteers and distribute masks with the logo on it for safety and advertising. He repeated unless there was a real sense to sell things, they would not. Chair McQuire agreed noting they had a lot of items left over. They could give masks away with cool colors. Ms. Zucker announced the Palm Beach Post is their media sponsor for the event. They are doing paid advertising in Art and Culture Magazine, Art Hive, social media on Facebook and Instagram, iHeart Radio, Palm Beach Illustrated, the Ricki Report, Sun Sentinel and Art Nexus. Discussion turned to Twitter as it is a great vehicle, but there are a lot of visuals and they could not do a lot of visuals on Twitter. They are finalizing the Boynton Beach Art Advisory Board Agenda Package for Feb 11, 2021 Page40 Meeting Minutes Special Art Advisory Board Meeting Boynton Beach, Florida January 6, 2020 final push out on the overall event. Some ads will be leveraged and they will get coverage in Palm Beach County essentially, and some elsewhere. Vice Chair Levine asked about press coverage. Ms. Zucker explained the event would receive coverage in Art and Culture Magazine in March. Vice Chair Levine noted the event is the first week in March and asked if there was pre -event coverage. Ms. Zucker explained most magazines want to wait until the month of the event. Information is posted online and they mail their subscribers the March issue in mid to late February. Now they have a lot to share in terms of the art and the artists. Ms. Zucker reviewed the print, broadcast and digital advertising is more real time and opportunities may just pop up. There could be opportunities to cover art installations on TV or have coverage during and post event. They also have a lot of digital coverage too as some activities are digitally covered well in advance. There were 23 pre/post event coverage opportunities noted. Graphics for website banners, e -blasts & social media were discussed and images of the VIP invitation was viewed. The graphic designer is working on it and all would come together with the same look. Email blasts would be issued through the City. The brochures will be printed and distributed before, and during the event at all City facilities. Ms. Zell would love a reminder about where they can sign up for the tasks they would like to volunteer for. Chair McQuire explained Ms. Zucker and Mr. Weiss would provide them to the members. Mr. Weiss explained the online sign up will be available tomorrow. Ms. Moodie asked when will the brochures would be ready and learned they are in the layout stage and they will know more by next meeting. Vice Chair Levine welcomed Mr. Weiss and thanked Ms. Zucker for the update, commenting their work was starting to look like a real event. Vice Chair Levine noted they had originally spoken to people about selling items such as mobiles, and asked if they were still selling their items. Mr. Weiss explained artists selling work is different than printing tee shirts for sale. They will work out something for them to sell including large scale works. Vice Chair Levine noted Julie Brumlik and others were not in the event. She asked if Ms. Brumlik signed on as a vendor or if she would be selling her pop-up greeting cards. Ms. Zucker would have to check and check with the City. Vice Chair Levine explained if they reached out to Ms. Brumlik, she will respond. Vice Chair Levine asked when they get the form, if they could reach out to their network of volunteers and learned they would clarify that at the next meeting. Mr. Weiss commented they will also need the dates for the training sessions. VI. Next Steps Glenn Weiss Chair McQuire noted the next step is the next Board meeting, and they will develop an agenda.
