Greater Clark Elementary Schools Art Show—Emily Dippie
Next Monday we will be supporting the teachers and putting up the show and on Thursday it will open, says
John McCarthy. Monday and Tuesday the teachers have signed up for slots to come hang the show. Thursday's
reception from 5-8. A couple of you volunteered at last meeting for that, and I will send out an email to remind
the ones of you that volunteered. Friday night from 5-8 and Saturday 1-4 is times for the show. I believe we
are covered for the entire show. So thank you for volunteering. If you are willing to come on Monday the times
are 4-7 but all teachers have signed up for 4-6.
Gallery Update—Emily Dippie—Jury Call—Ashley Brossart Show
What is on the digital gallery screen now is really nice from Ashley Brossart, she created a geometrical show
that takes advantage of digital gallery space. This will stay up through Art Show and then the art show will be
put on the digital gallery.
If you are willing to serve on a jury to pick whom will be on digital gallery next please let me know. For this
jury I am opening this up to the entire JPAC committee. With GCCS art show being next week we could maybe
do the jury in the afternoon.
Amplify Report—Emily Dippie
Had about 150 people in attendance,there was very positive feelings for food trucks that came, and everyone
loved the horse fashion show, and wanted to make sure they would be back next year. Thank Denise for the
activity at event, Rosey was instrumental in getting fliers out for us. What did this event cost us this year?Asks
Teah Williams-Hampton. $1,500.00, states Emily Dippie. But if we want to do this next year we will probably
have to look at more of a budget because Tammy donated a lot of time and material to make this happen. The
only thing the miniature horse owners asked for was media attention, and we for sure made that happen, says
Emily Dippie.
RFP Results—Pipes RFP—Shirley's Arbor RFP-Emily Dippie
Pipes RFP (design shown) artist will be beginning in just a couple weeks.
Shirley's Arbor—Joe Autry submitted his design for sculptures in Shirley's Arbor and will be getting started in

New Business: -
NOCO Art Mobile-Emily Dippie
First update is just a procedural update,the van we are looking at and discussed last meeting, City Council
approved the purchase so we will be doing that and will come up with design for our Art Mobile.
John McCarthy and I have been talking with someone to train for our summer projects. In terms of interviewing
things were very positive,but this person has to be able to structure things very well. This person did come
from a trusted person. We will be giving you more as we can pertaining to this.
Story Trail—Jury Call—Emily Dippie
As crazy as it sounds we are coming up on the Story Trail needing a jury, says Emily Dippie. The story trail
closes on May 2, 2022. For all of you on story trail jury last year you know this jury is a little more involved so
I wanted to let you know where we are in case you would like to be on jury again this year. We have two
options for Jury this year. May Zweek or May 16 week. This closes on May 2 I would get everything sent to
you May 3 and you would have the week to read and voting would be the following week. We are looking to
have about 30 submissions.
Shakespeare in the Park,Volunteer Call—Emily Dippie
We are rocking and rolling folks. Shakespeare in the park is coming two times this year. Our Shakespeare is at
the Depot on May 6th at 6:30 p.m. second one will be May 20th at 6:30. I specifically asking for help with set
up on May 6th, set up table and chairs, looking for 2-3 people around 5:30—8:00 p.m.
Arts Market-vendor applications—Emily Dippie
This is something we talked about last meeting. You decided we would have it again this year and we have
decided it would be June 18 and will go live on facebook this week.
Open Door Project—Emily Dippie
This is a brand new project. I wanted some time to discuss this tonight. If we are going to have a display of
doors in July we will need to start planning this month. I wanted to open the floor for ideas. We need to figure
out who we need to target for this, and how we target them, says Emily. I think we need to get this out to
neighborhoods, says Sarah Young. Do we want to target neighborhoods only?What if a girl scout or boy scout
troop wants to be a part of it? Or a church community? I don't have a preference either way, I am just putting
this out there. In depth discussion, I am very excited about this project, says John McCarthy. Would we like to
get a structured committee together as point people for Open Door? Asks John McCarthy. Sure, says Emily
Dippie. Is there anyone that would like to be on this committee? Denise Freville, Sarah Young, and Kofi Darku.
John McCarthy and Susan Harrison both would like to help as much as they possibly can.
