OTHER BUSINESS 9.1 OTHER BUSINESS Vice-Chairperson Hernandez asked if the City website advertised buying placards along the seat wall of the fairy ring at Shannon Park. Staff Member McCreary advised he would determine if the opportunity was still available and how it is being promoted. Cm. Tutino advised this summer she had an opportunity to work with the Alamo/Danville Artist Association to facilitate an exhibit at the Tao (spelling?) house. Cm. Tutino felt the Heritage Park would be a great venue to offer an art exhibit in photography or watercolor or any type of art mediums. Cm. Tutino further stated that the Heritage Museum and Parks offers many unique opportunities to capture the beauty of the site, artistically. Staff Member McCreary felt these types of opportunities for the community are certainly worthwhile and the City does have the resources to host an exhibition in a variety of locations such as the Civic Center and Shannon Community Center lobbies and therefore an offering of this kind is possible. Cm. Carr will follow up with Georgean Vonheeder-Leopold, Dublin Fine Arts Foundation, to further discuss this issue further with her and, update Commission as soon as possible. Cm. Minniear advised he would like to see the City include plans for these types of uses as new opportunities for art arise within the City of Dublin. Staff Member McCreary stated understands Commission's desire to offer more exhibitions and moving forward will take their suggestions into consideration when Staff plans for future facilities. Staff Member Mottola advised that at the next City Council meeting on August 21, 2012 the outgoing Poet Laureate will be in attendance to be recognized for her service to the community over the past years. ADJOURNMENT Being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 8:23 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Christie Marks Senior Office Assistant APPROVED: Vice Chairperson Hernandez
