Review of opening:
Next show opening should be on a Friday or Thursday, when the library is opened. The Library
is open in the evening on Thursday but not Friday.
Food cost has been researched. There will potentially be food at the next opening.
They should always be a show on display with as little as time as possible between exhibit.
Monday and Tuesday are not the best days for installation of exhibit.
Meeting frequency. The Committee meets ad hoc. Penne suggests setting a regular monthly
meeting which can be cancelled if there is no business.
Annual report: Review and edits
Potentially including performing arts in the program for next year.
Tabled: garden street art location, goose in the bush.
Public art dedication for the geese and clock needs to be organized, suggestion is there are
