A. CALL TO ORDER:

 SECA Chairman Melvin Kim called the Exploratory Task Force (ETF) meeting
 to order at 9:01 a.m.

C. PUBLIC FORUM:

 Mary Lou Wehrli discussed the development of a Public Art program as a
 worthy goal, that Century Walk should be commended and can be a guiding
 light due to years of experience, that it would be helpful for Century Walk to
 provide a deeper understanding of its assets including process, budget vs.
 expenses, and the long-term commitment to care for art pieces, and that the
 future could and should look different.

E. OLD BUSINESS:

F. NEW BUSINESS:

1. Receive the report out regarding City Council direction and the development of a Public
 Art program
 Sullivan and Gallahue explained that the process began in February 2020, the
 impact of COVID on progress, recapped Council direction, discussed the need
 for a more complete long-term Public Art program that represents all of
 Naperville, and a process to: 1) curate art, 2) develop a vision, 3) develop a fair
 and equitable process for members of the community to contact the City with
 requests to display public art outside of the annual application cycles, 4)
 manage art by an independent and diverse group of citizens, and 5) identify
 potential future funding opportunities for public art.




2. Receive the Aurora Public Art presentation

 Evans discussed the history of Aurora's Pubic Art program that started in 1969,
 that the City created a Public Art Department in 1996, how Aurora developed
 application, solicitation, review processes, the need to consistently review
 pieces to stay current, and the goal of ensuring the program is diverse and
 represents all citizens.

 ETF members discussed the appropriateness of learning from other
 municipalities, art pieces in Naperville, the history of Century Walk, and funding
 for an art program.

3. Approve the creation of a Public Art Task Force and set a date to approve members

 The ETF discussed several different subcommittee ideas including setting a
 vision for the program, program administration and possible funding
 opportunities, City-initiated art curation, applicant-initiated art curation for artists
 to request to display public art outside of the SECA grant process and without
 the need for funding from the City.

 Also explained was that the subcommittees would meet outside of the ETF
 meetings, membership assignments should be such as to not be subject to the
 Open Meetings Act (OMA), and that members will report recommendations

SECA Commission Meeting Minutes April 20, 2021

 back to the ETF which is subject to OMA regulations.

 The ETF members agreed to submit questions on the Century Walk
 Long-range Plan, discuss plan specifics as related to proposed subcommittee
 topics, and provide subcommittee membership recommendations in May.

G. ADJOURNMENT:

 The ETF adjourned at 10:40 a.m.
