Recommendation for Public Art Installations
The 4 Pillars of 29 Palms
Celebrating 29
Palms Culture,
People and Future
through Public Art
100 DESERT ARTISTS OF
COLOR INITIATIVE
What makes the City of Twentynine Palms so unique?
The aggregation of four important pillars:
The Joshua Tree National Park
The Twentynine Palms Marine Base
The Twentynine Palms Mission Band of Indians
The Resilient People Making Up Our Desert Oasis
Introduction
The Four Pillars of Twentynine Palms Public Arts Project is a recommendation by Black
Cactus Co-Working, through its Adobe Mara Public Art Project, aiming to enhance the cultural
and artistic landscape of Twentynine Palms by integrating public art installations at key
locations throughout the city. This proposal outlines a detailed plan for a partnership with
the Public Arts Advisory Committee to achieve this goal.
Project Overview
The project focuses on four public installations representing the pillars of Twentynine Palms:
Nature, Community, Resiliency, and the Desert, as personified by the Joshua Tree National
Page 17 of 23
Park, The Twentynine Palms Mission Band of Indians, and the Marine Corps Air Ground
Combat Center (MCAGCC) 29 Palms .
Each installation will be strategically placed at the four corners of Twentynine Palms, to
enhance the city's visual and cultural expression.
Project Plan
1. Competition and Call for Art
National Call for Artists: Launch a national call for artists to submit original designs.
Artists must detail the materials, cost, and durability of their proposed installations.
Artist Stipend: Each artist will receive a stipend of $50,000 for their installation. This
includes design, materials, and installation costs.
2. Dissemination of Information
Provide detailed guidelines and requirements to participating artists, emphasizing the
need for durable art that can withstand environmental exposure for 5-10 years.
Ensure artists understand that the city or sponsors are not purchasing the sculptures
outright but are paying for a 3-5 year installation period, after which artists can
reclaim their work.
3. Four Corners Installations
Site Identification: Identify specific corners within Twentynine Palms where each
installation will be placed. Proposed sites include:
Southern Corner: Near the entrance of Joshua Tree National Park.
Northern Corner: Close to the Twentynine Palms Marine Base.
Western Corner: Adjacent to the historic Highway 62.
Eastern Corner: Close to the Entrance to the Joshua Tree National Park
City + Art Guide: Installed near the city’s cultural hub and local galleries.
Budget Allocation: Allocate a budget of $50,000 per installation, ensuring each
corner receives equal financial support.
4. Permits and City Services
City Government Collaboration: Work closely with the city government to streamline
the permitting process for each installation. Ensure that all necessary permits are
obtained promptly.
City Services: Link city services to assist with the installation process, including site
preparation, transportation, and any necessary infrastructure support.
5. Durability and Documentation
Art Durability: Require artists to submit detailed plans on the durability and
permanence of their installations, ensuring they can withstand environmental factors
for 5-10 years.
Documentation: Hire a videographer to document the installation process and artist
workshops, creating a comprehensive visual record of the project's impact on the
community.
6. Temporary Art and Engineering
Emphasize the integration of engineering and lighting in temporary art installations to
enhance their visual impact and ensure structural integrity.
7. Journal and Impact
Page 18 of 23
Encourage artists to maintain a journal documenting how their art impacts their
personal and professional lives. This narrative can be shared with the community to
deepen the connection between the artists and residents.
Themes
Nature: A vibrant depiction of the natural beauty of Joshua Tree National Park, local flora and
fauna, and harmonious landscapes.
Community: A warm and inviting illustration highlighting local residents, cultural events, and
communal activities, showcasing a sense of belonging and unity.
Resiliency: A bold and uplifting artwork featuring the strength and perseverance of the local
community, including elements like the Marine Base, local heroes, and symbols of resilience.
Desert Footprint: An intricate and detailed representation of the desert environment,
capturing its unique beauty and challenges with earthy tones and natural elements.

100 Desert Artists of Color
Initiative
Page 21 of 23
The 100 Desert Artists of Color Initiative is an objective of Black Cactus Co-Working to help
support and amplify 100 artists of color in the desert communities included in San
Bernardino and Riverside Counties.
By offering our Information, Communication, and Technologies, Black Cactus Co-Working
plans to give away 100 Virtual Memberships over the course of 2024 to help support artists in
rural communities.
We anticipate that as a result of achieving this objective we will:
Launch at least 25 First Time Businesses
Help 10 First-Time Business Owners Achieve their First $10,000 in Revenue
Amplify the Art of Local Artists by Connecting them To Museums, Points of Interest and
Local Businesses
Translate Art skills for digital and business purposes
Help Launch first Products and Services to help establish Product Market Fit and Go-To-
Market Strategies
Leverage 9 total Art Walks Over the Course of 2024 Through the Adobe Mara Arts Walk
Initiative
Part of this week includes our mission and goal of putting artists to work.
Our goal?
We are putting artists to work.
From our base in Twentynine Palms, we’ll do that by addressing 4 key topics identified by the
State of California as priorities for improving the economic conditions of the areas
surrounding the Greater Palms Springs Area, with a particular focus on the Joshua Tree
Gateway Communities.
Artists will work with Black Cactus to create new, groundbreaking work and messaging
focused on the following topics:
Public Health and Pandemic Recovery
Water and Energy Conservation and Disaster Preparedness & Recovery
Civic Engagement and Voter Participation
Social Justice and Community Engagement
Inspired by themes and challenges related to the rugged spirit of desert communities, each
art walk focuses on various aspects of the art and technique of designing and building
community-oriented communications.
With each artist, our process involves the art and science of living, creating, and selling. By
analyzing the process of human creation, including processes such as documenting our art,
communicating our experience and mission, and applying creativity to communicate and
Page 22 of 23
solve local business challenges, we’ll dive into important lessons and anecdotes regarding
the future of business, community development, and art.
Serving in the role of host, Black Cactus dives into:
Visual and Performing Arts
Literature and Language
Music & Film
Fashion & Folklore
Science, Technology, and Vehicles
Health, Wellness, and Sports
Spirituality and Religion
Culinary Arts and Agriculture
Design and Architecture
...and so much more. The initiative and coinciding art walks feature research and workshops
from leading Artists, Creators, and Human Behavior Experts.
As we dive into local and regional desert stories, we’ll dive into broad themes related to
culture, art, and community. Tapping into monthly themes, artist and community members
will join each month's Art Walk and interact with the art, experiences, and stories of that
month's group of artists, offering unique and personal experiences.
In addition, the Initiative provides a step-by-step guide for those interested in creating
opportunities for deeper business building and creativity, from choosing an area of interest
to designing the methods and mediums for creating the art and stories they most care
about.
Lastly, the 100 Desert Artists Initiative offers sponsorship options for local professionals and
organizations who want to consistently access new and experienced member-supported art
and community events, with benefits including sponsorship discounts, priority access to
public events, and the opportunity to partner on merchandise.
