VI. BUSINESS ITEMS
A. Concert Under the Stars - Commissioner Brodsky began by remarking
that staff did a wonderful job of providing flyers to distribute for the first
Concert Under the Stars event that was held on April 16, 2005. Due to this
fact, Commissioner Brodsky asked staff why the Commission was not
Cultural Arts Commission Meeting
Minutes Page 2.
provided with flyers for the second Concert Under the Stars event taking
place on May 14, 2005. Staff stated the flyers were recently received from
the printer.
In relation to the concert, Commissioner Reynolds questioned the attendance
numbers as listed on page eighteen of the Commission packet. She said the
estimated attendance was three hundred and fifty people. Commissioner
Gassman commented that while she was at the concert, she personally
counted around five hundred people and they were still coming.
Commissioner Gassman said her estimate for attendance at the event is
around seven hundred people.
Commissioner Brodsky asked staff what the cost was for the first Concert
Under the Stars event. Staff replied that the total cost was approximately
one thousand dollars.
Commissioner Brodsky asked staff what the cost was for the upcoming,
Concert Under the Stars event. Staff replied the ,mariachi band, Fiesta
Mexicana has requested one thousand five hundred dollars for payment.
Additionally, staff stated there will be a five hundred dollar donation made to
the Mariachi 'Foundation. After these funds are paid out, and after any
applicable expenses are factored in, the cost for the event is estimated to be
around two thousand, five -hundred dollars.
Commissioner Brodsky stated he will arrive at the event at around five thirty.
Commissioners Reynolds and Gassman said they will arrive as close to five
thirty as possible.
VI. CORRESPONDENCE AND WRITTEN MATERIALS
A. Annual Work Plan — Commissioner Brodsky asked staff where the idea to
combine the Cultural Arts Commission and the ' Community Services
Commission came from. Director Horvitz stated that when the annual work
plans were submitted to City Council and they had a chance to review them
side -by -side, a general duplication of efforts was noticed. Commissioner
Reynolds asked staff to point out what efforts are duplicated because she
was not able to find any in the work plans. Director Horvitz said that
cultural events fall under the Community Services umbrella. Both the
concerts and the Artist Partnership fall under the Community Services
umbrella as well. .She stated she will finish her report tomorrow which will
provide more detail.
Commissioner Gassman stated the City of La Quinta has long touted itself to
be an arts community. She said she is fearful that if there is not an
established .Commission titled "Cultural Arts", residents will lose sight of
this.
Cultural Arts Commission Meeting
3.
Commissioner Reynolds asked staff about funding. Staff said that funding
for art pieces and the art wall both come from Art in Public Places funds.
Funding for, all other events/items come out of the general fund. Regardless
of whether the Commissions are combined, staff stated the Art in Public
Places fund will continue. Staff referred to the suggestion listed on page
twenty one in the Commission packet which offers that if the Commissions
are combined, the Cultural Arts Commission may evolve into an Ad Hoc Art
in Public Places �Com mittee.
Commissioner Brodsky made note that the Cultural Arts Commission was.
involved with the Bill Ware art piece at the Embassy Suites. That makes
four public art pieces the Commission was involved with opposed to three as
listed on page twenty-one in the. Commission packet during the fiscal year
2004-2005 (the Embassy Suites piece was reviewed in fiscal year 2003-
2004).
Commissioner Reynolds stated she felt that having a good, strong
Commission is very beneficial to the City. Commissioner Brodsky said he
feels it would be a loss to the City if the Cultural Arts Commission was
absorbed.
Commissioner Gassman suggested that it be taken into consideration that
none of the Community Service Commissioners have applied for a seat on
the Cultural Arts Commission. She stated that they cannot simply step into
the shoes of a Community Services Commissioner. Commissioner Gassman
also questioned whether any of the Community Service Commissioners have
an interest in art at all.
A noted concern made by the Commissioners was that in the future, when
vacant Commission seats are advertised, the title of "Community Service
Commissioner" will not draw the type of applicants that a "Cultural Arts
Commissioner" title might.
Commissioner Reynolds mentioned that part of the reason the City decided
to put the Commission together in the first place was to help the community.
In response to Commissioner Reynolds comments, Director Horvitz stated
that it is not unusual to combine commissions. The City Council has in fact
done this several times in the past.
Commissioner Gassman said she feels that by her attending functions put on
by the Community Services Commission, she has been penalized because it
gives the appearance of duplicated efforts.
a�
Cultural Arts Commission Meeting
Minutes
Commissioner Gassman asked if any of the Cultural Arts Commissioners
have attended a Community Services Commission meeting. Each
Commissioner present stated they had not. Commissioner Gassman
suggested that it should be a prerequisite to attend a meeting for potential
Commissioners.
A comment was made by Commissioner Brodsky that he was all for the
skate park, but that he did not consider that art.
Commissioner Reynolds suggested that perhaps the Commissions are being
combined so the City Council has more control over the selection of art
pieces.
Collectively, the Cultural Arts Commission stated they are not in favor of
dissolving the Commission that is presently in existence and they feel that to
do so would be a disservice to the community.
B. Point Happy and Solitude Improvements— Commissioner Brodsky told the
Commission that he was very pleased to see that someone has taken an
interest in completing these improvements. Commissioner Brodsky also
stated he looks forward to viewing the concepts that will be provided by Mr.
Ray Lopez.,
VII. COMMISSIONER ITEMS
A. Commissioner Attendance at Community Functions — Commissioner
Reynolds commented she was sad to hear Mr. Ed Hill passed away at the
age of sixty-two. She said that he will be missed and is thankful for the
many contributions he has made to our community.
Commissioner Reynolds told the Commission she is hoping to see the
production of "Art" that's being held in Old Town La Quinta and stated she
is planning on attending the Concert Under the Stars Event on May 14,
2005. She mentioned. that the Historical Society is having a farewell party
the same day and is hoping it will not impact the attendance to the City's
event.
Commissioner Gassman said she attended the .Concert Under the Stars event
and was incredibly pleased and satisfied with both the event itself and the
turnout for the event. She said she felt it was very successful.
Commissioner Gassman mentioned she was able to see "Art" this past
month and expressed her great appreciation for the production. She said it
was fabulous.
Cultural Arts Commission Meeting
Minutes
Commissioner Gassman said she attended the Community Picnic and
Birthday Bash. She felt this was a great success and residents enjoyed
themselves immensely.
Commissioner Brodsky thanked staff for the creativeness showed during the
Community Picnic and Birthday Bash. He felt the sea creatures provided in
the Cultural Arts Commission booth for the children to personalize was a
great idea. He said that while in attendance of the Community Picnic and
Birthday Bash, he observed a general feeling of satisfaction. He asked staff
what the attendance number was to which staff replied one thousand four -
hundred people.
Commissioner Brodsky said he will be able to attend the Concert Under the

PUBLIC HEARING:
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.
S:\Community Services\CAC\CAC Report\CAC Report'05\CACRPT.433.Point Happy and Solitude Improvements
06-09-05.doc
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 entered
into a Professional Services Agreement for improvements to the Point Happy and
Solitude art pieces.
Attachment A is a concept drawing provided by Mr. Lopez in which he is suggesting
removing some of the existing landscape at the Point Happy piece and replacing it with
lower growing landscape and using seasonal color instead of annual plants. This
would reduce the amount of visual confusion around the art piece and "clean up" the
look of the art piece. In addition, these improvements would tie the art piece into the
existing landscaping throughout the parking lot instead of having the landscaping
competing with the art piece.
Mr. Lopez is suggesting the palms that surround the Solitude art piece be relocated
and adding low growing shrubs and a light to accentuate the sculpture.
Attachment B are photographs of the art pieces in their current state as reference.
Mr. Lopez will be at the June 9, 2005 Cultural Arts Commission meeting to answer
any questions the Commission may have regarding this project.
The Commission's recommendations will be forwarded to the City Council for
consideration at the next regularly scheduled Council meeting.
