Art Selection Panels. Artist selection panels are selected by the Arts Commission. Community members are selected by the Arts Commission from a list of applicants. A non-voting facilitator, typically a City staff member, is utilized to assist the panel through the selection process.
Staff is also responsible for taking notes in order to establish a record of the process.
In order to ensure perspectives which reflect the diversity of the City of Chico, no panelist serves more than once in any two year period. The Arts Commission, through the staff, establishes and maintains a file of potential panelists, containing information on the experience of individuals wishing to serve in this capacity.
