Art In Public Places Program
Strategic Plan
Updated 9/2013

Purpose
Following state guidelines, the Art in Public Places (APP) program was established in 1990
by the La Quinta City Council. The City Council has a strong commitment to balance
development with cultural and artistic enhancements. In a community survey, cultural arts
ranked in the top five elements valued among City residents. Public art is one method of
ensuring the visual experience of La Quinta is rich with cultural, environmental, and artistic
beauty.
The purpose of the strategic plan is to provide direction for the following:
• Art Acquisition and Donation
• Examine maintenance levels and address preventative and ongoing maintenance
needs for public art.
• Address the diversity of art and artists within the APP program.
• Address the potential for future public art locations and recommend new art placement.
• Identify ideas for the enhancement of art on a temporary and permanent basis.
• Seek public input regarding suggestions and improvements to the APP program from a
variety of stakeholders including the Community Services Commission, La Quinta Arts
Foundation, Old Town Artisans, local artists, developers, and residents.
• Seek new ways to promote the APP program to residents and visitors.
• Review the inventory and condition of all art pieces including APP, Civic Center Art
Purchases, art donations, and art on loan to the City.

Art Acquisition - The Public Process
The majority of the public art pieces that are located on city owned properties have been
acquired through a competitive selection process. A request for proposals is distributed
through public art resources that reach artists, The submitted proposals and renderings
are then provided to the Community Services Commission which reviews projects and
interviews the artists. The Community Services Commission makes a recommendation for
an artist(s) to be sent to the City Council for consideration and approval. If approved, the
artist(s) is then placed under contract with the City to create the art piece.
Projects acquired through this public process include the
artistic panels in the custom bus stops along Highway 1 1 I;
the bridge railings on Washington Street, Eisenhower Drive,
Adams Street, and ,Jefferson Street; Library bus stop on Calle
Tampico adjacent to the Library and Adams, and signal boxes
painted in the Village and North La Quinta.
Public art is displayed in Fritz Burns Park, La Quinta Park, the
Cove Oasis, City Hall, Civic Center Campus, Senior Center,
Library, and the Museum. Providing public art throughout the
City affords residents and tourists the opportunity to view the
artwork along the City's major corridors and public facilities.
Local developers have the opportunity to integrate public art into or adjacent to their
residential or commercial projects. Since the inception of the program, developers have
worked with the City to integrate placement of public art in public right-of-ways for the
public to view and enjoy. In this process the developer works in conjunction with the City
to bring forth an artist that would complement the new development. The developer then
could request fee credits to purchase the APP or the APP Program could fund the artwork
up to the cost of the fees paid by the developer. Either way, this allows public art to be
placed throughout the community and add artistic elements to new development.
Recently, the La Quinta Arts Foundation updated their website to include a broader listing
of artists to be included in an Artist's Registry. This listing allows City staff and developers
the opportunity to access artists that are in the Festival and other smaller events provided
by the Foundation. The registry also includes artists that have participated in public art
programs and artists that only want to be included in the registry.
Art acquired through a partnership with developers includes "Don" at Rancho La Quinta;

"Running Free" at Embassy Suites Hotel; "Desert Dolman" at Figue Restaurant; "Desert
Mural" at the La Quinta Car Wash; "Cahuilla Family" at Point Happy Shopping Center;
"Fountains" at La Quinta Court adjacent to LG's restaurant; "Eagles" at Lowes (formerly
Eagle Hardware), "Desert Mural" and "Old Town" Triptych Murals, Mission Bell Tower at
Old Town. "Freedom and Romance" at Griffin Ranch; "Andalusian Rider and Horse" at
Andalusia; "Portal of Poppies" at Plaza Calle Tampico; and "Double Dipper" at Caleo Bay
Care Center.

Donations
La Quinta owns art pieces that have been donated or partially
funded by groups within the City. "The Spirit of La Quinta"
by John Kennedy located at the Civic Center entrance was
donated in part by the La Quinta Rotary Club. The Friends of
the Senior Center contributed to the City's public art collection
by commissioning a historic mural painted on the stage at the
Senior Center. The Friends of the Library contributed to mural
panels in the Children's area of the library. The La Quinta
Historical Society donated funds to a mural on La Quinta history
in the multipurpose room of the Museum and to the Historical
Plaques of La Quinta located in six locations throughout the
City. The 9/1 1 Memorial was initiated by a La Quinta youth earning an Eagle Scout
badge and working with local designers and contractors was completed in 2013.
Preventative Maintenance
The City has established a preventative maintenance program that addresses its public art,
At the time art is accepted by the City, artists are to provide the City with directions for
the appropriate ongoing maintenance for each piece. If repairs are needed, the City will
coordinate and communicate with the artist to repair the piece. Each year staff evaluates
the public art and establishes priorities for repair. The ongoing maintenance is part of the
annual budget and planned for as the collection expands. Public art on commercial and
residential properties are the responsibility of the developer. If the City notices that pieces
are not being properly maintained, staff will notify the developer to address the issue. The
preventative maintenance program includes the following elements:
• Review the suggested care by the artist and provide the needed preventative

11
maintenance.
• Remove graffiti from art quickly and carefully without damage to the piece.
• Prioritize and list needed repairs to be completed in a timely basis.
rn
• Check lighting and the adjacent materials surrounding the art piece to assure that
nothing is affecting the quality of the art.
I•
Sprinklers and fountains are checked to make sure that water is not spraying the art
unless it is designed to do so.
• Bases and areas around the art work to be kept in good condition and not allowed
to deteriorate.
De -accession
Artwork acquired with expenditures from the Art in Public Places fund shall be the property
of the City and maintained by the City. The City may dispose of artwork at its discretion,
subject to the agreement with artists or otherwise relating to any specific artwork. The
artwork acquired and installed by a developer will be the property of the developer,
except to the extent that the City has rights in or to the display of the artwork. Artwork
acquired by the developer in lieu of a fee may be donated to the City and maintained
by the City.
—�
Funding the Program
The APP program is funded through development fees paid to the City for residential and
commercial development. Municipal Code 2.65.090 was approved by City Council
requiring all residential projects pay 1/4 of one percent of the project costs in excess of
two hundred thousand dollars or no less than twenty dollars. Commercial, industrial and
non residential projects pay'/2 of one percent of the project costs or no less than twenty
dollars. In lieu of paying the development fee, applicants may also acquire and install
art on or near the project site. As a guide, the cost of such artwork should approximate
the fee that would be paid by the applicant. The applicant can then receive a fee credit
or art in public places funding for the cost of the art work.

Recommendations
The locations of public art are generally dispersed throughout the City. Many pieces
are located at the Civic Center Campus and other public facilities. There are also a
number of art pieces in north La Quinta along Highway 1 1 1 and major corridors such
as Jefferson Street and Washington Street which are integrated into everyday living such
as bus stops, art projects adjacent to private developments, and bridge railings.
Bridge Railings at Dune Palms will be integrated into the development of the new bridge
in north La Quinta. Bridge railings in the City will be designed by the some artist and
connect the City north and south.
SilverRock Resort, with the future golf course clubhouse, boutique hotel, and resort hotel,
will also provide opportunities for public art. This 525-acre site is planned for high end
golf courses and several hotel sites that will bring tourists to the City. This development
provides a beautiful landscape that will be enhanced with public art. The SilverRock
Property should be considered for public art and cultural offerings.
The La Quinta Museum is an excellent location for future public art projects. A historical
mural was completed at the La Quinta Museum by artist Andre Blanche. The La Quinta
Museum provides space for temporary public art on display and traveling exhibits. The
City and the Museum management have taken a more active approach and have art
displays as a regular activity in appropriate spaces at the Museum. The exhibit halls
and classrooms serve to provide space for this to occur. The La Quinta Museum is used
for art exhibits including the Paris in Plein Air, Tantalizing Teapots, and the On Earth to
Stay-Cahuilla Indian Basket exhibit and Creativity in the Cove. The La Quinta Museum
in collaboration with the La Quinta Arts Foundation and La Quinta Historical Society
provide cultural exhibits and programming to the public at this facility.
An "Artist Registry" is available and should be expanded through the La Quinta Arts
Foundation to include a variety of artists and mediums for the City to access and to
provide to developers. This Registry in collaboration with the La Quinta Arts Foundation
and numerous artists, both local and across the United States, is located on the LQAF.
corn website.
The City should consider continued involvement from the art community utilizing the La
Quinta Arts Foundation and other local and regional resources to provide support to the
,A
"Sun and Moonbeam" by Louis De Martino "Dedication, Courage, Honor' by Mark Leichliter
13
staff in the operation and maintenance of the APP program. A non-profit such as the La
Quinta Arts Foundation may consider this as part of a future agreement with the City.
Independent art consultants are also used to provide support services for issues such
as maintenance or conservation concerns and appraisals. Staff has worked with the
La Quinta Arts Foundation on a variety of events and projects at the Museum and the
Civic Center Campus and should continue working together to promote and develop
programs and services that enhance public art and culture offerings to the community.
City staff will continue to collaborate with non -profits to promote art and culture
including, but not limited to, the La Quinta Arts Foundation, Old Town Artisans Studio,
Friends of the Library, and La Quinta Historical Society to promote cultural programs at
the La Quinta Library, Museum, Civic Center Campus, and La Quinta Park.
Seek out the purchase of artwork made by La Quinta artists that are recognized in the
Arts Acknowledgement Area in Civic Center Campus.
Encourage emerging artists to apply for Art in Public Places projects to obtain new and
diverse art work and an array of artistic styles.

Update the Art in Public Places Map to keep the acquisitions updated for the residents.
Keep this map on the City's municipal and tourism websites and downloadable so it
is easily available to interested residents and tourists.
Consider additional public art in the northern portion of the City, working with
developers and Homeowners Associations to increase the public art opportunities.
Locations throughout the City should be identified as new development occurs.
Art In Public Places (APP)
The City has spent over $2.8 million to purchase and maintain public art. The City
has over 150 pieces located in public facilities and near commercial and residential
developments.

In Fiscal Year 2012/2013, the Artists, Veterans, and Sports
Acknowledgement pieces were waxed and the bases were painted; the Spirit
of La Quinta Fountain was cleaned and waxed; the artists for the signal
boxes "touched -up" damage from graffiti; replaced the water pumps for the
art pieces in front of LG's restaurant; re -secured the Sniff monument and
plaque in the Campus Lake; provided overnight lighting to the 9/1 1 sculpture
at the campus; and worked with Lowes and Point Happy to the improve art
maintenance on their private developments.
After reviewing all of the art work throughout the City, the following pieces
are considered a priority for preventative maintenance and repair for this
fiscal year:
1. Repaint the bases and wax the bronze on the three Acknowledgement
pieces at the Campus.
2. Clean and wax the Spirit of La Quinta located near the north City Hall
entry twice annually.
3. Clean and wax the Campus Bronze Relief Map.
4. Clean and check the In Between the Earth and Sky Spray Tower and
the Gateway to the Desert at Fritz Burns Park.
5. Inspect the painted signal boxes and apply anti -graffiti coating if
needed.
6. Relocate or remove the Fritz Burns Park mosaics due to poor condition
of glass tiles.
7. Refinish the patina on the Veterans Acknowledgement that was
damaged during graffiti removal.

8. Clean and wax the bronze sculpture at the Time Stream II in the
Montezuma Roundabout.
Since the Civic Center Campus has a large concentration of Public Art, all of
