Cultural Arts Commission Meeting
Minutes Paae 2.
Stars will take place on Saturday, April 16, 2005 at 6:30 PM.
Commissioner Loudon asked for two volunteers to arrive at the event at
5:30 PM to meet the bands. Commissioner Gassman volunteered.
Commissioner Loudon, Commissioner Brodsky and Commissioner Reynolds
stated they would not be available to attend this event. Commissioner
Gassman asked the Commission if her husband, Alan Gassman, could fill in
for the second Commissioner. The Commission agreed and thanked
Commissioner Gassman for her time.
A request was made for any Commissioner who is available to arrive at 6:15
PM to serve water to the concert -goers. Commission guest, Jan Blakely
stated she will try to arrive early to help facilitate this, but as of the
Commission meeting time, she is unsure and will have to check her
schedule. It was agreed that Ms. Blakely would contact Commissioner
Loudon later in the evening to confirm these plans.
B. Community Picnic — The Commission collectively agreed they were
pleased with the comment cards produced by staff.
The Commission asked Director Horvitz if they will be able to distribute the
comment cards through the staff booth at the picnic instead of the Cultural
Arts Commission booth. The general feeling is that since the Commission
booth is aimed at children who will be drawing and painting, not only will
space be limited, but it will be too messy to have the cards there. Director
Horvitz said she will inform staff the cards will be placed on the staff table to
distribute during the event.
Commissioner Reynolds suggested that some cards be kept at the
Commission booth. Although soliciting comments will not be a primary
concern at the booth, there may be a need on an individual basis for
someone to fill one out while visiting the Cultural Arts Commission booth.
Commissioner Loudon expressed her regret that"she will be unable to attend
this annual event, but stated she will volunteer her time to follow-up via
phone call or e-mail to each person who fills out a comment card for the
Commission. Commissioner Loudon also stated she will put together a
report for the Commission describing names, contact information and what
was requested so there is something to compare against next year.
The Commission requested from staff that pens or pencils be supplied at the
booth the day of the event. Additionally, the Commission requested that
upon the end of the day, the comment cards be kept with staff until such a
time that Commissioner Loudon can collect them to handle her follow-up
communication. Staff stated writing instruments will be provided and the
comment cards will remain with the Community Services staff until collected

by Commissioner Loudon.
C. Annual Work Plan — Commissioner Loudon stated she did not have the
opportunity to review the Work Plan prior to the evening's meeting due to a
technical problem with her computer.
Director Horvitz informed the Commission there was a change to the format
of the Work Plan this year and that the City Council has requested to see
clearly defined goals. Such goals need to be measurable and achievable over
the course of the next year. Staff stated that the goals listed on page two
are only suggested goals and the Commission may revise them if they so
choose.
Commissioner Gassman stated that on page two of the Annual Work Plan,
staff has listed a goal of the Commission to "Work in conjunction with the La
Quinta Arts Foundation in the Art Under the Umbrellas show to highlight La
Quinta Artists by posting a sign at La Quinta artists booths." The
Commission was informed by Commissioner Gassman that while distributing
flyers over the course of the past month to promote the upcoming Concert
Under the Stars event, she attempted to leave flyers for distribution at the La
Quinta Arts Foundation table in Old Towne La Quinta. The people manning
the table refused to put the flyers out for distribution.
Commissioner Loudon asked staff if there is a reason known why this might
have happened. Staff replied she knew of no such reason.
Staff suggested developing a working relationship with La Quinta Arts
Foundation might be a goal for the Commission. Commissioner Gassman felt
that inviting a representative of the La Quinta Arts Foundation to a meeting
would be conducive in beginning such a relationship. While at a meeting,
the Commission would have the opportunity to share upcoming events, ideas
for events and vice versa. Open communication will be stressed and
Commissioner Gassman stated that lack of communication is currently a key
problem.
Commissioner Loudon requested staff contact the La Quinta Arts Foundation
to arrange for a representative to come to a Commission meeting. An open
discussion may stop any more problems before they begin.
Commissioner Gassman requested clarification from staff on page five of the
work plan, second bullet mark. Commissioner Gassman interpreted this to
state the Commission needs to take a more proactive approach in the
inclusion of information for the GEM. Staff told Commissioner Gassman that
is not the case but that she has included in the budget, funds for an Art In
Public Places brochure which is a task that can be accomplished with the
Commissions help. Commissioner Brodsky asked staff if there will be a map
O
Cultural Arts Commission Meeting
Minutes Page 4.
and photos included in the brochure, to which staff said there will be.
Commissioner Loudon stated that currently she sits on the board, and is Vice
President of the Coachella Valley Arts Alliance. Commissioner Loudon stated
her forte has, always been fundraising, and feels that since there have not
been any fundraising activities this past year, her skills are not being utilized.
Because of this, she said her skills will be better suited elsewhere and
informed the Commission she will resign her post in June of this year.
Commissioner Loudon said she feels the wording on page six, under the third
bullet might be changed so they are not obligated to the Coachella Valley Art
Alliance. Staff recited the text in the Work Plan as "... as deemed
appropriate by the City Council" and stated that it does not, in fact, obligate
the Commission. Commissioner Loudon said the text is fine as listed.
Commissioner Gassman stated she felt the goals listed by staff were
appropriate and readily achievable. She also stated she thought the format
was wonderful. Each Commissioner shared Commissioner Gassman's feeling
about the Work Plan and thought it was very well laid out by staff.
It was moved by Commissioners Brodsky/Gassman to accept the proposed
Work Plan with the few minor changes by the Commission for staff to
present to City Council. Unanimous.
VI. CORRESPONDENCE AND WRITTEN MATERIALS
A. Monthly Calendar of Events — Commissioner Loudon thanked staff for
the inclusion of the calendar in the Commission packet. She stated it is a
very useful tool for the Commissioners.
B. Commissioner Vacancy — Commissioner Loudon stated she was very
troubled by the events surrounding the vacancy. Specifically, she is upset
that Commissioner Lane only listed half truths in her correspondence to staff
and the rest of the Commission.
Commissioner Loudon stated that she encouraged Commissioner Lane to
attend the upcoming meeting, which would have been the current night's
meeting.
Although Commissioner Loudon said she felt the right decision was made by
the Commission and City Council to relieve Commissioner Lane of her
position, she felt sad for Commissioner Lane because the minutes did not
show what Commissioner Lane asked her.

Cultural Arts Commission Meeting
Minutes
Commissioner Brodsky said he clearly heard Commissioner Lane tell him that
she would not be willing to attend any Commission functions in the future
which is a direct contradiction of what she stated in her e-mail
correspondence.
Commissioner Gassman told the Commission that in her opinion, there is
nothing more that needs to be done on this issue, and no further
communication should be had. Commissioner Gassman asked staff if there
will be a posting for the new Commission position. Staff said this issue will
be discussed by the City Council at the next meeting.
C. Point Happy and Solitude Improvements — Staff gave a verbal update on
the art improvements. The City Council will consider the Commissions
update to determine if they want to spend money to improve the two art
pieces. The City Council Meeting will be held on April 19, 2005.
D. Correspondence from Ellie Berliner - Commissioner Reynolds expressed
her dissatisfaction that the correspondence from Ms. Berliner arrived so late.
Commissioner Gassman commented on the mailing date of March 25, 2005
and stated there wasn't near enough time to plan on attending the show as
requested in the correspondence.
Commissioner Brodsky stated his wife attended the Opera in the Park which
took place in Palm Springs on April 10, 2005. There was an estimated two
to three thousand people in attendance. Commissioner Brodsky said the
event was very successful and suggested using it as a model for our City.
Commissioner Reynolds stated she felt that advertising. is the key to any
successful event. The Opera in the Park was advertised on television, over
the radio and in print. Commissioner Loudon said they had big name
supporters such as KMIR TV which made a big difference in their advertising.
Commissioner Gassman noted the time of day and the time of year the
events are held directly correlate with attendance. Commissioner Brodsky
commented on the timing of the Opera In The Park that took place in Palm
Springs which was on a Sunday and in the early afternoon. Commissioner
Brodsky also stated this time of day/week will find'many people together
after church and is a time when families are looking for something they
might enjoy together as a family.
Commissioner Loudon requested that staff make a note of month and time of
day for future events as it appears conducive to community participation.
Commissioner Gassman said that while some areas of the Cultural Arts are
still in their infancy, time is always a factor and that it always takes time for
people to start coming to events on a regular basis.

Commissioner Reynolds asked staff if there has been any advertising for the
upcoming Concert Under the Stars in the local paper. Staff stated that all
advertising is turned over to Kiner Communications to handle.
Commissioner Reynolds said that it is very important to advertise in the
Weekender for residents and out-of-towners alike. Commissioner Gassman
asked staff to find out how much advertising will be for the Weekender so
that future events may be advertised there.
Commissioner Gassman suggested that if events are not making it to the
newspaper, perhaps a new advertising agency should be sought after.
Ms. Jan Blakely informed the Commission that KWXY is a local radio station
that offers free advertising and service announcements. Commission Loudon
and Commissioner Brodsky both stated they listen to the station regularly
and believe advertising here would be beneficial for future events. Director
Horvitz told the Commission again that the advertising is always turned over
to the advertising agency to handle.
VII. COMMISSIONER ITEMS
A. Commissioner Attendance at Community Functions — Commissioner
Reynolds told the Commission that she attended the Art Show which took
place at the Tennis Gardens in Indian Wells. She brought with her a fan that
was passed out to the patrons of the event which advertised City
information. The fan included the City's website address and telephone
number and was distributed out of the City booth. While at the City booth,
people were able to discuss living in the City of Indian Wells to potential
residents. Commissioner Reynolds gave the fan to staff with a request that
our City might use this idea in the future. Commissioner Reynolds suggested
the cost should be minimal and is an ideal way to advertise for the City of La
Quinta.
Commissioner Reynolds said she was also able to attend the Umbrella show
put on by the La Quinta Arts Foundation. Commissioner Reynolds said she
spoke with Kathleen Hughes from the La Quinta Arts Foundation while there,
and found out local concierges were approached and given event information
to pass out to visitors and that this proved to be very helpful for attendance.
Commissioner Reynolds suggested to the Commission, using this approach to
advertise for upcoming events in the future. The Commission agreed this is
a good idea that should be utilized to its fullest.
Commissioner Reynolds stated she left Concert Under the Stars flyers at a
local bank for distribution.

Commissioner Brodsky said that like Commissioner Reynolds, he also
attended the Umbrella Show and the Art Show at the Tennis. Gardens.
Commissioner Brodsky questioned attending events outside the city and
Commissioner Loudon said that indeed it helps if Commissioners are able to
attend outside events then they will be able to bring ideas back to our City.
Commissioner Gassman attended the Art Show in Indian Wells. She
presented to the Commission a list of twenty-one places where flyers were
distributed to advertise for the upcoming Concert Under the Stars event.
Commissioner Gassman stated that in addition to the locations listed, she
neglected to include the library, Post Office, Ace Hardware, Great Clips,
Stater Bros, Video Depot and the Beachside Cafe. At each establishment,
Commissioner Gassman requested that a flyer be placed in the window and
the employee lounge. Ace Hardware refused to post a flyer but Great Clips
posted one in both the window and the employee lounge. Commissioner
Gassman commented that of all the business visited, far and away, the
owner of the Beachside Cafe was the friendliest and the most eager to help
in any way necessary. Commissioner Brodsky stated the Beachside Cafe is
under new ownership.
Commissioner Brodsky stated he brought flyers with him to the Coffee Clash
which takes place every Thursday at Jensen's. Commissioner Brodsky
stated this is an informal coffee break where anyone can come and talk
about whatever they wish to discuss and is open for more than just City
business. The Commission was informed the Mayor makes a point of
attending this event every week along with about twenty other people.
Commissioner Reynolds said the Mayor has been attending this Coffee Clash
for about ten years and has moved locations through the years.
Commissioner Loudon thanked Director Horvitz for all ,the hard work she has
done for the City and for the Commission over the past month.
XI. ADJOURNMENT

Annual Work Plan
WORK PLAN TASK:
Advisory Body to the City Council.
BACKGROUND:
AGENDA CATEGORY:
BUSINESS SESSION:
CONSENT CALENDAR:
STUDY SESSION:
PUBLIC HEARING:
—A—
The Cultural Arts Commission submitted its annual work plan for City .Council
consideration at the May 3, 2005 City Council meeting. At this meeting, the City
Council discussed the possibility of combining the CulturalArts Commission and
Community Services Commission as it appears that the two Commissions are offering
many of the same type community programs.
The Cultural Arts Commission offered or supported the following events: Old Town
art shows; Path of the Bighorn unveiling; Concert Under the Stars; La Quinta
Playhouse and Artist Partnership Day. The Community Services Commission hosted or
supported the following programs: Library Groundbreaking; Skate Park
Groundbreaking; Tree Lighting Ceremony; Youth Workshop; Skate Park Coalition;
Centre Point Park Groundbreaking; Flag Day event and the Community Picnic.
The City Council suggested that the Commission be a five member Commission
through attrition of members when their terms expire. Currently, the Cultural Arts
Commission has two filled positions that will expire in 2006, those being the positions
held by Sheldon Brodsky and Andrea Gassman. The Community Services Commission
has three positions that expire in 2006, those Commissioners being Ed Hackney, Tori
St. Johns and Mark Weber.

The City Council directed staff to place this item on the May 17, 2005 City Council
agenda for consideration with the Commissioners receiving a copy of the staff report.
Due to the possible change in the Commissions, the City Council took no action on the
work plan submitted for consideration.
Staff has not finalized the City Council staff report regarding this issue, however, a
possible suggestion is to have the Cultural Arts Commission become the Art In Public
Places Committee, and would meet when there was a proposal for a public art piece to
be considered. The Cultural Arts Commission considered three public art piece
projects during Fiscal Year 2004-05: Point Happy modifications; Old Town Mural
Project, and Path of the Bighorn Sheep placement.
Should the City Council determine it in the best interest of the City to combine the two
Commissions, the ordinance that governs the Commission would be modified to reflect
the change of responsibilities.
Attachment A is a copy of the Community Services Commission's proposed work plan
for Fiscal Year 2005-06 along with Attachment B which is the Community Services
Commission's Fiscal Year 2004-05 Work Plan Tasks.

The City Council allocated up to $5,000 for the design and construction management
of the improvements to the Point Happy and Solitude art pieces from the Art in Public
Places fund.
BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW:
The Cultural Arts Commission directed staff to contact a Landscape Architect
regarding improvements to two existing art pieces: "Cahuilla Family" at Point Happy
and "Solitude" at the Senior Center. The Commission would like to see improvements
to accentuate the art pieces, as the Commission feels that the art pieces are not being
displayed to their fullest.
Staff contacted Gil. Fraide of Desertscapes Landscape Design and Installation for
proposals for the two art pieces. Mr. Fraide worked closely with Mr. Bill Ware on the
"Running Free" sculpture at the Embassy Suites project.

Mr. Fraide submitted proposals for the Commission's consideration at the January 13,
2005 Commission meeting. After some discussion, the Commission asked Mr. Friade
to consider other improvements to the art pieces. Mr. Friade was directed to return to
the February 10, 2005 Commission meeting with further recommendations. Mr.
Friade was unable to attend the February 10 meeting and was invited to attend the
March 24, 2005 Cultural Arts Commission meeting. Staff contacted Mr. Fraide on
March 17 to request the proposal for the two art pieces. Mr. Fraide asked to review
the City's draft Art Purchase Agreement prior to submitting his proposal. Staff
provided a draft Art Purchase Agreement to Mr. Fraide on March 17 for his review.
Mr. Fraide declined the offer to be involved with these projects. The Cultural Arts
Commission directed staff to forward the recommendation that the two art pieces be
improved with landscaping. At the April 19, 2005 City Council meeting, the City
Council approved up to $5,000 for plans and construction management for
improvements to the two art pieces.
Staff contacted Ray. Lopez, a local landscape architect that designed the La Quinta
Court art piece improvements, on his interest in this project. Mr. Lopez expressed a
great desire to improve these two art pieces. Staff met Mr. Lopez at each of the sites
and shared the Commission's concerns regarding the landscaping. Mr. Lopez will
provide up to three concepts for Commission review at a future meeting.
