ARTIST RECRUITMENT – NEW ARTIST EXHIBITION/RECEPTION
1. Lobby Artist :
Alexandra Louie – Reception: August 11
2. Lobby Artist : Sept/Oct –
Caroluna Lunasangha, artist presented by Commissioner Mujica-Beavers.
Group decides unanimously for Caroluna, provided she frames her work properly for hanging.
Consider Art Flower Prints presented by former Commissioner Lily Smith.
Group decided the preference is to show local, current artists and that if the need arose to fill a time slot
and no artist was available; the prints would be a good alternative. Letter of thank you to be sent to Lily.
3. Community Room: Sept/Oct –
Group decides unanimously for dual Artist showing: Joe Grenn/Judith Stern
4. 2019 Art Installation Calendar :
• Group verses individual installations – Lobby and Community Room Galleries.
• Consider Mike Macgruder (current Lobby artist) request for 2019 CR assignment – May/June
• Consider Marin Society of Artists (current CR artists) request for 2019 CR assignment
C. Fong asks C. Mujica-Beavers if she has any plans to send out a “call for artists”. C. Fong suggests that
maybe repeating artists is not the best approach, vis a vis the above requests. C. Mujica-Beavers agrees. C.
Group shows are considered, the “call for artists” will go out to groups that showed in 2018, but no promise
will be made for 2019.
It is suggested the Artist Recruitment committee (Mujica-Beavers and Norris) make contact with the
Artist Laureate, Richard Rozen, for his input.

2. Heritage Preservation Award –
Review of updated 2018 document packet “Call for Nominations” and approval. Timeline approval.
Question from L. Pickett: should the award ceremony still be done on Sept. 19. Timeline for
nominations and choice can remain the same. C. Noguez feels commission should wait until L. Pickett
is back and able to handle the invitation mailing and award arrangements. L. Pickett reminds everyone
the dates have to be on all paperwork as it goes out now so decision is needed. Commissioners agree
on October 17 Award Reception and Ceremony.
