1. Roll Call and Approval of Previous Meeting Minutes
Meeting convened at 3:10 PM
Ms. Layden moved, seconded by Ms. McSweeney, approval of the previous meeting
minutes
2. Conservation Fund: Review of Proposals
Ms. Morris indicated that the two sculpture projects from the Westown Association
are large enough to be considered individually. Each could be funded with $5,000
individually. She stated someone should reach out to the association to ensure they
are in communication with the Department of Public Works.
Ms. McSweeney moved to recommend to the full Milwaukee Arts Board that $10,000
be funded to the Westown Association for the Court of Honor projects. There were
no objections.
3. New Work Fund: Review of Proposals
Ms Layden stated the Alive MKE proposal wouldn't apply to the New Work Fund, but
the organization could apply for a project grant. Ms. Morris agreed, stating that the
project was not for a public space, but for an exhibit in a museum. It is therefore
outside of the parameters of what the Board can fund. Ms. Klose moved, seconded
by Ms. Layden, to not consider the proposal. Ms. Witte could contact the
organization to determine if they are eligible to apply for a project grant.
Ms. Morris stated the Temporary Resurfacing 2015 proposal requests funds to pay
artists and rent equipment for this year's project. She requests that the applicant
come give a presentation. She would like to know about the organization's artist
selection process, types of artists, and the submission process. A special meeting
could be held March 9 or March 11. Ms. Morris will contact the applicants regarding
what should be included in the presentation.
