A
Good
evening
my
name
is
joan
vorderbergen
and
I
am
the
chair
of
the
minneapolis
arts
commission
before
we
begin
I'd
like
to
note
that
this
meeting
includes
the
remote
participation
of
members
as
authorized
under
minnesota
statutes,
section
13d.021
due
to
the
declared
local
health
pandemic.
I
will
now
call
this
meeting
to
order
and
ask
the
clerk
to
call
the
rule
so
that
we
may
verify
the
presence
of
a
quorum.
C
D
E
F
B
A
Commissioner,
midday
will
not
be
joining
us
this
evening,
just
an
fyi.
I
just
got
a
text
from
her,
so
thank
you
with
that.
We
will
proceed
to
our
agenda,
a
copy
of
which
was
posted
for
public
access
to
the
city's
legislative
information
management
system,
which
is
available
at
limbs.minneapolismn.gov.
A
May
I
have
a
motion
moved.
May
I
have
a
second
please.
H
E
A
All
right
that
motion
passes,
and
next
we
just
need
acceptance
of
the
minutes
of
which
you
should
have
received
and
is
included
in
this
evening's
agenda.
From
our
meeting
on
october
20th
2021,
may
I
have
a
motion
to
approve
the
minutes
from
october.
A
H
C
D
E
F
F
A
Aye,
thank
you.
That
motion
passes
excellent
thanks
for
getting
through
that
everybody
and
welcome
to
november's
arts
commission
meeting.
I
was
just
kind
of
talking
in
the
green
room
or
the
waiting
room
about
how
this
is
the
second
to
last
meeting
of
2021
and
what
an
incredible
year
it's
been
and
how
much
I
just
really
appreciate
everyone
who's
here
and
all
of
the
tremendous
amount
of
work
in
so
many
different
areas.
A
A
We'll
have
our
commissioners
introduce
themselves
if
you
wanna
go
ahead
and
mention
your
pronouns
the
award
and
any
update
that
you'd
like
to
share
something
that
you're
excited
about
briefly
or
anything.
That
just
is,
on
your
mind,
really
quick.
If
you
want
to
share
that
and
then
we'll
introduce
our
staff
and
then
we
will
have
our
access
and
engagement
alt
introduce
our
special
guest
this
evening.
So
that's
where
we'll
go
so.
A
Does
anybody
want
to
kick
off
and
again
we'll
just
go
ahead
and
tag
each
other
as
we
move
through?
So
what
commissioner
wants
to
kick
us
off.
J
J
It
just
just
because
it's
current
in
my
brain,
I
watched
the
webinar
through
the
weissman
today
with
diani
whitehawk.
Oh
my
god,
I
don't
know
if
anyone
else
saw
it,
but
it
was
just
incredible
she's
working
on
a
new
piece
in
the
new
chemistry
building
at
the
u
and
so
she's
getting
into
glass.
J
K
Thank
you,
commissioner
thompson.
I
think
we
must
be
on
the
same
wavelength,
because
I
too
saw
that
webinar
today
and
found
it
amazing.
I
think,
like
the
conversation
around
place-based,
work
that
can
also
take
place
in
a
different
location
like
her
off-site
time
in
germany,
was
really
a
great
testament
to
collaboration.
So
it's
going
to
be
up
on
the
youtube
channel
too.
If
anybody
wants
to
check
that
out
for
an
in-person
event,
I
I
saw
the
high
point
archive
over
at
me
and
I
found
that
really
pretty
inspirational
this
month.
K
So
my
name
is
I'm
from
ward
11.
She
her
hers
and
I
serve
as
a
layperson
and
a
secretary
on
the
minneapolis
arts
commission,
I'm
gonna
tag,
commissioner
spenton.
G
Hello,
my
name
is
jeff
swinton
and
he
him
his
I'm
out
of
ward
7,
and
I
got
to
see
the
bill.
T
jones,
arne,
zane
performance
at
you
know
at
the
northrup,
so
university
of
minnesota,
and
it
was
in
conjunction
with
the
walker
you
got
to
be
on
stage.
It
was
incredible
right,
so
I
was
blown
away.
So
that's
my
joyful
and
that
was
last
week.
I'm
still
happy
about
it.
So
and
I
tag
commissioner
mansfield.
E
All
right,
hi
mari,
she
her
hers,
I'm
an
artist
on
the
commission
and
a
resident
of
ward
8..
This
week's
been
kind
of
chill
for
me.
I
got
my
booster
shot
on
monday,
so
I've
kind
of
just
been
feeling
like
I've
been
on
a
rickety
boat
for
the
last
few
days,
yeah
I'll
call
on
crystal.
I
Hi
I'm
krystal
brinkman.
She
her
hers.
I
live
in
ward
one
and
I
am
what
oh,
maybe
things
are
glitching
out?
Okay,
good,
you
guys
are
kind
of
glitching
out
and
I
think
it's
my
internet.
So
I'm
looking
forward
to
so
many
art
things
coming
up
and
I'm
excited
to
talk
about
the
opening
of
the
building
tonight.
But
that's
one
of
them.
C
C
I
did
walk
over
on
one
of
the
nice
days
to
see
the
sculpture
garden,
I'm
walking
distance.
So
that's
to
see
angela
two
stars,
especially
after
we
had
her
as
a
guest
last
month,
so
that
was
fantastic
and
yeah.
Why
don't
I
take
commissioner?
Mobius?
Did
I
say
your
last
name
right
mobius?
Is
that
correct.
L
It's
maybeus,
but
that's,
okay.
Babies.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
I
know
it's
kind
of
counter-intuitive,
I'm
jack
mabias
live
in
ward
12.
I
work
at
the
university
of
minnesota
as
an
administrator
for
the
institute
on
the
environment.
Fun
fact
I
danced
with
bill
t
jones
back
in
the
day
and
I'm
super
excited
to
see
that
performance.
What
else
am
I
excited
about?
L
I
got
my
booster
shot
as
well.
I'm
super
excited
about
that
so
and
I
will
tag
commissioner
sookie
jones.
D
Hi
everyone,
commissioner
sookie
jones,
she
her
hers,
word
seven.
I
also
saw
the
bill
t
john
show,
and
it
was
amazing
and
has
me
just
so
excited
about
being
in
a
live
performance
again.
Something
else
I'm
excited
about
is
the
rojo
collective
is
launching
a
pop-up
shop
between
thanksgiving
and
through
december,
in
the
ids
tower
that
I
highly
recommend
everyone
checking
out.
D
In
addition
to
having
artists
work
available
for
purchase,
they're
also
gonna
have
a
selfie
museum
that
they're
commissioning
various
artists
from
within
the
collective
to
create
spaces
for
people
to
come
and
and
enjoy.
So
I'm
really
excited
about
that,
and
I
will
tag
commissioner
vorderbergen.
A
Thanks
joan
vorderbergen,
I
am
excited
to
report
that
I
just
signed
a
contract
today
that
finds
me
working
as
a
freelance
contractor
in
ward
3,
and
there
will
be
more
to
come,
which
is
so
exciting.
A
Downtown
didn't
totally
book
me
off,
I'm
back
it'll
be
fun
and
I
was
really
excited
to
do
a
studio
visit
to
an
artist
that
a
lot
of
you
probably
know.
That's
also
part
of
the
rojo
collective
shawn
garrison
today.
That
was
exhilarating
and
just
reminded
me
of
why
working
with
artists
this
is
such
a
rewarding
process
just
that
energy
and
that
creativity
and
that
vision
and
how
how
fun
it
is
to
be
in
the
presence
of
really
creative
and
talented
people.
So
that
was
a
really
kind
of
filled.
A
My
sails
yeah,
so
I
will
pass
it
to
commissioner
smith.
F
Hey
this
is
david
smith,
word
one.
He
has
I'm
a
person
on
the
commission.
I've
been
meaning,
I
don't
have
any
immediate
plans,
but
I've
been
meaning
to
get
over
to
the
all
my
relations
gallery
for
their
current
show.
It
sounded
pretty
interesting
and
I
have
been
meaning
to
go
to
that
gallery
for
quite
a
while,
so
hopefully
that'll
be
within
the
next
week
or
two
I
can
make
it
over
there.
F
C
M
Everyone,
mary
altman,
she
her
hers
and
I
was
at
the
same
webinars
a
lot
of
people
today
and
really
enjoyed
it,
but
I
also
have
to
say
that
yesterday
I
also
enjoyed
commissioner
aylesworth
testimony
before
the
budget
committee
was
very
creative.
B
I
am
tina
beach,
a
program
assistant
for
the
city
of
minneapolis
and
I
do
the
administrative
support
for
the
arts.
Commission.
I've
been
under
the
weather
for
about
a
week,
so
I
look
forward
to
doing
some
of
the
events
you
guys
have
been
mentioning.
They
sound
really
interesting
once
I'm
feeling
better.
A
Thanks
for
being
here,
you're
not
feeling
well
tina,
and
I
hope
you
feel
better
soon.
Okay
and
I
I
believe
that
we
are
moving
on
to
our
guests.
If
we've
got
all
of
our
staff
has
had
a
chance
to
say
hello,
is
there
anybody
from
the
access
team
that
wants
to
give
an
introduction
to
our
guest
or
I'm
not
sure
we
didn't
really
talk
about
that?
We
can
move
right
into.
I
I
can
I
can
introduce,
really
excited
and
grateful
that
james
scott,
the
director
of
the
capri
theater
in
in
minneapolis,
is
here
to
join
us
they're
in
a
very
exciting
time.
I
mean
I'm
sure
you
always
are
in
a
very
exciting
time,
but
but
especially
now.
So
thank
you
for
joining
us
and
just
kind
of
telling
us
about
the
capri
theater
in
general.
What
all
the
exciting
updates
are
and,
of
course,
as
always,
we're
always
we're.
I
Looking
to
how
can
we
support
your
efforts
and
and
connect
with
you
more
take
it
away.
H
All
right,
thank
you
can.
Can
everyone
hear
me
I'm
experiencing
okay
great.
This
is
my
third
zoom
call
today
the
first
two
went
swimmingly
this
one,
the
audio
decided
not
to
connect
to
so
I'm
on
my
phone
for
for
the
audio
portion.
Thank
you
for
the
invite
appreciate
being
here.
I
got
to
see
my
son's
ninth
grade
orchestra
concert
last
night,
so
that
was
my
exciting
art
he's
an
upright
bass
player.
H
They
were
doing
some
some
music
from
la
la
land
and
he
was
really
having
to
jam
on
the
base.
So
it
was
fun
to
see
him
really
get
active
as
opposed
to
just
bowing
all
the
time.
The
capri
theater
was
it's
a
little
weird.
I
was
trying
to
think
I
normally
give
these
talks
as
I'm
walking
people
around
the
building.
So
it's
it's
trying
to
reimagine.
What's
this
what
this
looks
like,
but
we
were
built
in
1927
as
the
logan
at
the
corner
of
west
broadway
and
logan.
H
We
changed
our
name
in
somewhere
between
30
and
32..
I
thought
it
was
32.
Until
recently,
I
saw
an
article
that
the
paradise
was
robbed
in
30.
H
H
At
one
point
there
were
about
there
weren't
about
there
were
13
of
these
small
community
theaters
in
north
minneapolis,
stretching
from
camden
all
the
way
down
to
glenwood
avenue,
where
the
last
operating
one,
I
used
to
say
the
last
standing
one,
but
the
homewood
studios,
which
is
opposite
george
sherman's
homework
studios
the
home
of
theater,
is
still
standing.
H
It's
been
condemned
and
should
be
torn
down,
but
it's
we're
not
the
last
standing
one.
We
had
capacity
just
giving
you
a
little
background.
We
had
capacity
up
to
about
510
at
one
point:
we're
250
seats
we're
a
little
bit
smaller
venue.
H
I
don't
know
still
trying
to
find
history
on
why
the
name
changed
to
the
capri,
I'm
still
trying
to
find
history
on
why
or
who
played
here.
We
were
built
as
a
vaudeville
stage,
so
we
have
a
full
stage
house
that
at
one
point
had
12
hemp
line
sets.
H
So
there
was
full
intent
to
do
scenery
in
the
space
rigging
into
space,
but
that
period
between
the
building
of
the
building
in
27
and
really
up
into
the
70s,
I'm
not
finding
a
ton
of
information.
So
crystal
you
asked
me,
you
know
things
that
we
would
love
to
know
we're
coming
up
on
our
100th
anniversary,
we're
thinking
about
writing
a
book
about
the
history
of
the
theater
and
and
so
there's
some
big
gaps
in
in
what
we
know
about
this
space
throughout
the
years.
H
I've
got
all
kinds
of
anecdotal
stories,
but
I
don't
have
a
ton
of
concrete
information
that
I
can
provide
in
two
days
out
of
our
history
that
everybody
knows
about
was
january
5th
and
6th
1979.
When
prince
played
his
first
public
concert
on
our
stage.
H
We
have
photos
from
that
night.
Greg,
helgeson
who's
still
in
town
as
a
photographer,
took
those
photos
and
we
were
able
to
purchase
them
and
we
have
them
on
display
in
the
lobby
really
important
in
our
history.
We
get
a
lot
of
folks
that
come
through
on
the
prince
pilgrimages
that
happen
around
first
avenue
and
the
anniversary
now
the
anniversary
of
his
birth.
It
was
the
anniversary
of
his
death,
but
it's
still
only
two
nights
out
of
the
94
year
history
of
this
building.
So
we
really
try
to
lean
into
everything
else.
H
H
Pcyc
purchased
it
without
the
intent
of
operating
it
as
a
theater.
They
purchased
it
with
the
intent
of
moving
their
high
school
into
the
space,
so
they
operate
a
contract
alternative
high
school,
which
was
created
by
state
statute
in
73,
which
allows
us
to
take
youth
that
are
not
succeeding
in
the
mainstream
school
district
and
move
into
graduation.
H
So
we
can
let
kids
stay
with
us
until
they're
21,
we
can
cater
the
classwork
that
they
need
around
the
credits
that
they're
still
missing
and
as
of
two
years
ago,
the
last
years
that
we
had
decent
information
on.
We
were
graduating
about
85
of
those
kids
that
came
to
us
graduation
that
were.
H
To
graduate
within
a
year,
so
that's
that's
a
big
part
of
our
mission.
I
bring
that
up
because
we're
really
youth
focused
within
the
capri
space
have
been
since
they
made
the
decision
in
the
early
2000s
to
save
the
theater.
H
There
was
a
point
where
the
board
was
on
the
fence
as
to
whether
or
not
the
space
was
usable,
it
was
run
down.
The
boilers
were
shot.
There
was
a
lot
of
money
that
needed
to
be
put
into
it,
but
they
made
that
choice
to
keep
the
space
open
as
the
community
asset
that
it
was
and
to
look
forward
to
continuing
to
be
a
community
asset.
H
At
that
point
they
hired
carl
reichert,
who
now
runs
the
textile
center
kevin
west,
dennis
spears,
greta,
oglesby
and
t
michael
rambo
to
be
the
team
that
created
the
programming
within
this
space
2005,
we
started
a
campaign
to
do
the
expansion
that
we
completed
a
few
weeks
ago
and
then
2009
happened
and
the
bottom
fell
out
of
everything.
So
we
took
a
portion
of
the
money
we
had
raised
at
that
point.
H
Rt
was
one
of
our
big
champions
at
that
point
and
operated
the
space
until
2015
when
we
started
the
campaign
again,
so
we
started
what
we
call
phase
two
and
over
the
course
of
15
to
20.
We
raised
about
nine
and
a
half
million
dollars
of
the
twelve
and
a
half
million
dollars
that
it
took
to
build
this
space.
That's
new
markets,
tax
credit
was
a
big
chunk
of
that
funding,
but
the
rest
was
all
private
funding.
H
The
capri
is
committed
to
about
2.2
million
that
we
have
to
put
into
the
building
our
skin
in
the
game
and
did
a
20
000
square
foot,
expansion
and
remodel
on
the
space.
So
this
is
the
part
where
I
would
normally
be
walking
you
through
all
the
rooms,
but
so
we
have
250
seats
in
the
capri
itself.
H
All
brand
new
seats
we
put
in
15
motorized
rigging
line
sets
on
the
stage
two
catwalks
out
front.
A
brand
new
audio
system
from
a
italian
company
called
axiom
we're
the
first
insole
in
north
america.
Lauren
wicklander
is
the
rep
in
town.
He
uses
the
equipment
at
a
lot
of
his
concert
venues,
but
we're
the
first
permanent
install
an
all
led
lighting
system.
So
we
have
the
capabilities
within
the
capri
to
do
theater
to
do
music
to
do
dance
to
do
film.
H
We
still
have
a
2k
film
projector
and
a
partnership
with
the
minneapolis
st
paul
film
society.
So
we
do
a
first
thursday
film
series
every
month
with
them
we're
also
partners
with
st
paul
chamber
orchestra,
so
they
performed
during
our
grand
opening
week.
They
performed
the
vivaldi's
four
seasons
and
it
was
just
one
of
the
most
beautiful
things
I
ever
heard.
It
was
ridiculously
good
down
on
our
stage
tonight.
H
We
actually
have
a
graduation
for
turning
point
for
one
of
their
adult
programs,
so
we
continue
to
strive
to
be
a
civic
and
community-minded
venue
for
north
minneapolis
and
beyond.
H
If
you
walk
down
the
hall
into
the
new
space,
we
also
built
a
2
000
square
foot,
black
box
theater.
If
you
know
level
9
over
at
the
guthrie,
I
just
basically
ripped
that
space
off
and
brought
it
over
here
because
it
works.
So
well
so
we
have
the
sky
deck
above
where
we
can
do
lighting
and
rigging
and
sound
up
above
the
stage
we
can
set
up
125
seat
theater
configuration
in
the
space
we
can
set
up
about
135
u-shaped
configuration.
We
get
a
lot
of
requests
here
for
fashion
shows.
H
H
H
H
We
have
three
dressing
rooms
serving
the
two
theaters.
We
have
a
green
room,
a
serving
pantry,
so
we
can
do
catered
events,
a
wardrobe
area,
a
scene,
shop
area,
so
we
can
build
scenery
upstairs
we
have
a
rehearsal
hall
and
then
part
of
the
youth
oriented
portion
of
the
building.
We
have
a
best,
buy
team
tech
center.
So
again,
2
000
square
feet
of
computers
that
are
fully
tricked
out
with
adobe
adobe
photo
suite.
We
have
a
state-of-the-art
recording
booth
and
engineering
booth,
which
is
becoming
one
of
our
most
popular
spaces.
H
There's
a
video
recording
and
editing
space
with
green
screen
and
that
space
is
open
to
youth
in
the
community
three
to
seven,
we'll
eventually
get
it
open
three
to
eight
five
days
a
week,
there's
no
fee,
there's
no
classes.
It's
just
show
up
this
equipment
is
here
use
it.
We
have
a
digitizer
pad
that
we
have
a
student-
that's
here
practically
every
night,
just
drawing
like
mad
on
she's,
creating
so
much
beautiful
work.
M
H
With
youth
in
mexico
and
europe
and
there's
17
tech
centers
in
the
twin
cities,
so
we're
also
starting
to
develop
sort
of
a
community
where
we're
sharing
work
amongst
the
other
teen
tech
centers.
Here
in
minneapolis
and
in
saint
paul.
H
There's
an
art
gallery
facing
west
broadway,
so
we
have
40
almost
45
linear
feet
of
visual
art
space.
I
live
down
in
edina.
I
almost
wreck
my
car
every
time
I
drive
through
hopkins
because
I
love
the
hopkins
arts
center
and
how
their
their
public
art
is
so
forward
facing
out
onto
the
street.
So
we
wanted
to
make
sure
we
created
a
space
very
similar
to
that
we
put
the
marquee
prominently
back
on
westbrook.
H
H
So
you
can
see
it
about
three
quarters
of
a
mile
left
west
broadway
to
the
west,
and
you
immediately
see
it
as
you
come
around
the
curve
on
west
broadway
heading
west
from
the
east,
and
it's
been
an
incredible
marketing
tool
for
us,
we're
hearing
a
lot
of
people
coming
in
and
saying.
Oh,
I
just
saw
this.
The
king
of
the
kosher
grocer
was
going
to
be
playing
at
the
capri,
and
I
saw.
H
So
it's
it's
been
a
very
successful
tool
for
us
having
that
back
on
west
broadway,
the
the
last
thing
I'll
say
about
the
spaces
is
all
things
to
everyone
is
a
dangerous
model,
but
that's
the
approach
we're
taking
towards
this
space.
What
is
it
that
the
community
needs?
How
can
we
serve
them?
H
How
can
we
create
a
space
that
allows
folks
to
come
in
and
imagine
and
create,
but
also
taking
my
theatrical
background,
kevin
west
dennis
spears
are
also
on
staff
here,
gregory,
graham,
we
wanted
to
make
sure
we
created
a
space
that
people
could
come
into
and
create
the
highest
quality
work
that
they
that
that
that
work
to
match
any
other
work
in
the
in
the
community.
I
think
I
think
the
right
way
to
say
that
peter
moore
was
just
here
for
a
four-week
run
of
king
of
the
kosher
grocer.
H
I
just
mentioned
that
he
started
a
new
stage
company
stage
north
and
was
able
to
rehearse
the
show
in
our
rehearsal
room,
build
the
scenery
in
our
scene
shop.
Do
all
the
costume
fittings
out
of
the
wardrobe
area,
taftan
performed
the
show
here
had
his
opening
night
party
here.
All
of
that
was
able
to
be
done
under
our
roof.
H
That's
a
model
that,
to
the
best
of
my
knowledge,
doesn't
exist
anywhere
else
in
the
twin
cities,
and
we've
lost
a
lot
of
these
smaller
garage
type
theaters
in
the
past
three
to
five
years,
and
that's
a
that's
a
void,
we're
hoping
to
fill
here
at
the
capri
to
create
a
space
for
these
itinerant
companies
that
still
exist
and
I'm
starting
to
see
with
give
to
the
max
day
I'm
starting
to
see.
Some
of
them
are
popping
back
up
resurfacing
that
I
haven't
heard
from
in
a
while.
H
J
Thank
you.
This
is
just
really
really
great.
Congratulations
on
everything.
Can
you
talk
about
how
you're
involved,
with
the
other
economic
development
activities
going
on
along
west
broadway,
just
partnerships
you
have
or
how
kind
of
how
you're
working
with
the
other
great
stuff
that's
happening
along
the
avenue.
H
Sure
I'm
a
member
of
the
west
broadway
coalition
board,
so
I'm
very
involved
in
in
all
of
those
conversations.
H
We
just
had
a
metro
council
and
blue
line
blanket
on
the
full
name
of
that
group,
but
we
just
had
a
blue
line
exploration
meeting
here
last
night.
M
H
F
H
That
gets
developed
as
I
feel
very
strongly
that
without
some
sort
of
parking
structure
back
on
23rd,
when
that
space
gets
developed
and
to
serve
there's
nine
or
ten
businesses
between
us
and
penn
on
west
broadway,
none
of
which
have
parking
at
the
moment
and
there's
no
there's
olympic
cafe.
But
that's
not.
H
I
don't
send
patrons
there.
It's
not
that
the
olympic
isn't
a
perfectly
fine
restaurant.
It's
not
a
sit-down
restaurant
that
this
community
needs
to
support
a
theater
like
ours.
H
But
to
answer
your
question,
you
know:
there's
a
lot
going
on
here.
I've
just
this
week
had
a
few
conversations
with
sandra
samuels
over
at
nas
because
their
building's
still
boarded
up,
and
it's
like
you
got
to
get
that
fixed.
It's
sending
the
wrong
message
that
right
out
the
five
points,
there's
a
boarded
up
building
and
what
we're
trying
to
accomplish
is
not
only
to
bring
art
into
this
community
but
to
bring
the
community
the
communities
outside
of
north
minneapolis
into
this
community.
H
The
number
of
people
who
have
said,
if
you
did
more
matinees
I
would
come,
but
I'm
not
gonna,
be
there
after
dark,
it's
disheartening.
But
that's
what
we're
trying
to
push
uphill
against.
We
even
had
contractors.
We
we
had
an
appreciation
night,
I
neglected
to
say
we
opened
the
building
on
october
3rd.
That
was
our
grand
opening
day.
I
just
sort
of
launched
into
the
what
we
have
here,
but
on
october
1st
we
had
an
appreciation
night
for
the
contractors.
I
just
wanted.
G
H
H
My
wife
into
north
minneapolis
on
a
on
a
friday
night.
So
how
do
we?
How
do
we
change
that
narrative
of
the
you
know
less
than
one
percent
of
this
community?
This
is
a
an
amazing
community
that
I
get
to
work
in.
There's
wonderful,
warm
caring
artistic
people
here
that
that
have
that
live
here
and
have
lived
here
for
30
40
50
years.
H
But
it's
a
small
percentage
of
this
community
is
controlling
the
narrative
and
that's
the
conversation
that
we're
having
up
and
down
the
corridor
is.
How
do
we
change
that.
K
A
You
and
thank
you
for
pushing
that
dominant
narrative,
pushing
against
that
dominant
narrative.
That's
really
unfair
to
the
community
who
lives
there
and
the
people
who
rely
on
that
corridor,
as
well
as
all
of
the
people
who
the
capri
theater
can
serve
as
a
wonderful
anchoring
institution
for
our
cultural
experiences
and
economic.
A
You
know
anchor.
So
I
just
want
to
sincerely
thank
you
for
visiting
with
us
and
telling
us
more.
I'm
not
surprised
that
there's
a
whirlwind
of
activity
happening
and
just
want
to
really.
You
know
thank
the
access
group
too
for
inviting
you
to
come
today
and
would
love
to
stay
connected.
Somehow,
I'm
not
sure
if
there's
any
other
questions
or
comments
from
my
fellow
commissioners
before
we
thank
james
for
joining
us
this
evening.
I
Well,
I
have
a
question:
how
can
we
best
kind
of
stay,
updated
or
kind
of
in
the
know
about
what's
going
on
and
public
events
or
programming,
that's
happening
there?
How
can
we
find
out
and
attend
sure.
H
H
The
email
blast
is
primarily
our
work
centric.
So
we
have
a
legend
series
that
dennis
spears
curates
the
first
thursday
film
series,
our
partnership
with
spco
the
work
we
do
with
our
youth.
We
have
a
this
saturday.
We
have
a
fifth
through
eighth
grade
arts
camp.
So
every
third
saturday
of
the
month
we
have
an
arts
camp.
So
that's
it's
more
focused
on
our
work,
but
we,
if
we
do
have
space
on
that,
we
add
other
events
that
are
happening,
but
we
have
a
beautiful
website.
H
Archstone,
which
is
a
local
company,
helped
us
develop
it
and
it's
it's
gorgeous.
We
couldn't
be
more
proud
of
it.
A
Thank
you
so
much
excellent.
I
encourage
everybody
to
jot
that
down
and
go
to
the
website
and
sign
up
for
the
newsletter
would
be
super
cool
to
stay
in
the
know,
and
thank
you
again
for
joining
us
this
evening
and
sharing
of
your
time
with
us
to
share
all
the
amazing
work.
That's
happening,
and
it
sounds
as
if
there's
just
a
lot
to
dig
into
so
it'll,
be
fun
to
follow
up
and
and
make
a
visit
tip,
of
course,
and.
H
I'll,
just
I'll
put
it
I'm
more
than
happy
to
give
tours.
I
am
so
proud
of
this
building.
I
love
showing
it
off
so
my
name's
on
the
website
and
my
email's
there.
If
you
want.
H
F
H
A
All
right
moving
on
that
was
great,
it's
always
so
inspiring
and
thank
you
access
again
for
facilitating
this
for
everybody.
It's
just
a
wonderful
way
to
stay
connected
in
these
times
and
and
really
dig
a
little
deeper
into
great
work.
That's
happening
in
our
community.
So
unless
there's
anybody
had
anything
else
to
add,
we
will
move
on
to
the
next
item
on
our
agenda.
A
Okay,
which
is
mac
opportunities.
We
have
a
couple
of
things
listed
here
and
one
thing
that
I
I
think
that
we
will
add
in
just
discussing
some
good
news
about
vacancies
too.
But
first
is
the
public
art
events
that
are
forthcoming
and
I'm
not
sure
I
know
that
access
has
some
information,
I'm
not
sure
if
that's
going
to
come
with
your
updates
later
and
if
we
just
want
to
talk
really
quick
about
the
events
themselves
and
have
mary
give
us
a
really
quick
like
logistics
and
rsvp.
A
But
if
anybody
wants
to
add
certainly
feel
free
to
do
so.
But
mary,
do
you
want
to
just
quickly
comment
on
the
dates
that
you
want
to
see
commissioners
present
and
what
we
can
look
forward
to?
Because
this
is
like
several
years
of
work
and
legacy
work
for
the
city
that
we
were
a
big
part
of
so
and.
M
For
the
artists
to
you
know,
the
artists
really
push
themselves
on
these
projects.
So
there's
two
events,
one
is
on
thursday
december
2nd.
You
received
an
invitation
to
that.
That
is
an
invitation
only
event
so
and
it's
in
the
conference
center
and
we're
gonna
try
to
keep
it
to
like
100
people,
because
because
of
covid,
that's
really
a
dialogue
with
the
artist
and
tristan's
gonna
facilitate
that
and
nearly
all
of
the
artists
are
gonna,
be
there
and
the
the
audience.
M
Besides,
you
is
really
the
arts,
media
and
arts
curators
in
town.
One
of
the
goals
is
just
to
you
know,
raise
the
artists
up
and
draw
attention
to
their
work
and
with
people
that
can
get
the
word
out
about
the
december
10th
event
and
also
with
people
who
can
advance
the
artists
careers.
M
So
there
is
also
an
optional
tour
at
two
o'clock
that
day.
That's
if
you
haven't
signed
up
yet
please
do.
On
friday,
I'm
going
to
send
out
a
reminder.
I
think
it
will
fill
up
and
then
on
december.
10Th
is
the
larger
public
event.
M
I
keep
calling
this
the
10
story
party,
which
is
kind
of
a
challenge.
It's
going
to
start
off
with
remarks.
M
It
starts
at
4,
but
the
remarks
start
at
4
30
and
the
mayor's
going
to
speak
joan
is
going
to
speak
council
member
goodman's,
going
to
speak
tristan
alhad.
The
lead
artist
is
going
to
speak
and
will
have
some
sort
of
blessing
by
an
elder,
and
this
all
happens
around
the
same
time
that
the
sculpture
does
its
little
short
light.
M
Show
so
they'll
probably
be
they'll,
be
some
musical
performance
during
the
light
show
and
then
and
then,
following
that,
all
of
the
artists
will
be
at
their
works
and
available
to
talk
to
people
who
come
and
find
them
and
they'll
be
like
a
map
of
where
they
are
they'll,
also
be
food,
the
food's
being
provided
by
pimento
and
there's
all
and
there's
gonna
be
food.
On
both
the
first
floor
and
on
the
10th
floor.
M
M
M
We
might
need
elevator
operators
so,
and
so
that's,
prime
and
it
would
be
great
to
have
some
commissioners
also
help
greet
people
when
they
come
in
the
door.
So
I'm
really
excited
about
both
events.
I
hope
we
get
some
really
good
press
for
the
artists
because
they
really
deserve
it.
They've
re
they've
done
just
great
and
really
inspiring
work,
and
so-
and
please
tell
everybody
on
facebook
that
you're
going.
A
That's
awesome
thanks
mary,
any
questions
comments,
anything
to
add,
okay.
I
hope
that
you
can
make
it
to
the
vip
event.
I
know
I
just
want
to.
I
had
heard
that
there
was
just
a
little
sensitivity
about
that
limited
amount
of
people
that
are
able
to
go,
but
want
to
assure
you
that
you
are
very
welcome.
A
You
have
those
people
that
we
would
love
to
see
you
and
want
to
see
you
so
to
not
feel
sensitive
about
potentially
taking
someone's
seat
that
you
are
a
vip
for
sure
and
just
want
to
affirm
that
for
anybody
who
might
maybe
might
think
that,
because
I
know
we're
a
nice
group
of
people
that
thinks
about
others
and
so
erase
that
from
your
mind
and
know
that
you
are
definitely
vip
status.
Okay
and
we'd
love
to
see
you
and
anything
else.
A
If
there's
any
other
questions-
or
you
know-
certainly
follow
up
with
mary
follow
up
with
me
and
we
will
we
will
try
to
answer
whatever
questions
you
may
have
so.
Okay.
The
next
item
about
mac
opportunities
is
that
there
is
a
public
art
advisory
committee
seat
that
is
opening
up,
because
I
am
stepping
down
off
of
that
committee.
A
I
just
made
this
decision
because
I
am
on
the
policy
alt
as
well
as
well
as
exec,
and
want
to
be
able
to
just
focus
a
little
bit
more
in
one
of
the
alts,
instead
of
being
on
several,
so
that
frees
up
a
seat.
So
if
anybody
is
interested,
I
would
love
to
talk
to
you
about
it.
A
I
know
mari
and
david
both
serve
and
it
really
is
a
place
where
an
immense
amount
of
decision
making
is
made
it's
these
are
projects
that
wield
sometimes
six-figure
budgets
and
involve
multiple
complex
cultural
layers
of
community
engagement
and
just
a
lot.
It's
they're.
Just
it's
it's
a
really
fascinating
group
to
be
a
part
of,
so
I'm
definitely
not
stepping
down
for
lack
of
it
being
super
rewarding.
You
know
thing
to
do
an
opportunity
to
be
a
part
of
jack.
I
see
your
hand
is
up.
M
One
thing
to
just
note
for
anyone
that's
interested
is
the
panel
meets
the
first
wednesday
of
the
month
from
3
30
to
5.,
so
it's
important
that
you're
able
to
come
at
that
time.
A
Okay
and
jack,
would
it
be
helpful
for
me
to
follow
up
with
you
via
email
and
just
have
a
quick
chat.
A
Awesome
and
if
anybody
else
is
interested
too,
I
mean
thank
you
jack,
so
much
for
stepping
up,
but
like
certainly
if
you're
interested,
please
feel
free
to
reach
out,
and
we
will
navigate
that.
So.
Thank
you,
though,
jack
for
stepping
up
all
right.
Any
other
questions
about
public
art
committee
seats.
Okay.
The
next
item,
then,
is
the
convention
center
panel
opportunity
there
annually.
A
There
is
a
collection
of
artwork
part
of
an
arts
program
that
exhibits
2d
artists
in
the
convention
center.
It's
led
by
leslie
palmer
ross,
and
I
apologize
that
the
name
of
the
organization
that
does
that
work
for
the
city
is
escaping
me,
but
they
are
forced.
Thank
you,
art
force.
Thank
you,
sorry
about
that,
and
so
basically
it's
an
open
call.
A
Artists
are
paid
and
it's
a
panel
selection.
It's
pretty
it's
interesting.
I
think
that
there's
it's
a
cool
opportunity
for
emerging
artists
and
it's
a
cool
opportunity
to
really
showcase
and
highlight
minnesota
work.
Minnesota-Based
artists
work,
so
we
are
in
need
of
a
volunteer
by
friday
november
19th
to
review
applications
the
week
of
the
22nd,
so
that
is
like
now
and
the
time
commitment
is
two
to
three
hours
and
I
was
not
sure
if
there's
a
stipend
associated
with
the
panel
opportunity.
E
J
I
am,
I
was
wondering
so
so
you're
saying
it's:
it's
review
of
applications
for
artists
to
have
art
throughout
the
convention
center
or
is
it
a
show?
Sorry
I'm
not
familiar
with
with
what
this
is.
Can
you
say
I
mean
I'm
interested
no
matter
what,
but
can
you
say
a
little
bit
more
about?
Is
it
a
one-time
show
or
is
it
rotating
art
or
what
I
mean.
M
A
Yeah,
that's
the
cool
show
I
mean
it's.
I've
they've
had
a
lot
of
really
good
work.
That's
coming
out
of
there,
so
lots
of
great
folks
that
worth
checking
out
so
for
next
steps,
then
tina.
Could
you
please
connect
murray
and
lucy
with
talia?
Is
that
tina
go
ahead.
B
Oh
sure
I
can
reach
out
to
leslie
she
needed
names,
so
she
did
email
and
say
the
first
meeting
is
monday
next
monday
and
it's
from
two
until
three.
So
that's
the
very
first
meeting.
So
I
just
wanted
to
let
both
of
you
know
that,
but
I
can
send
leslie
the
the
two
volunteers.
I
can
send
her
that
information
and
she'll
reach
out
to
you
directly.
A
Awesome,
thank
you
tina
and
thank
you
mari
and
lucy.
Thank
you
so
much
that's
a
really
tight
turnaround
and
it's
awesome
to
be
able
to
have
mac
representation
in
that
process.
That's
fantastic!
So
thank
you.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Okay.
The
next
item.
Yay
drumroll.
Please!
No,
I'm
sorry!
I'm
just
really
excited
there's
a
lot
of
movement
this
week
and
there's
some
really
exciting
stuff
that
happens.
So
I
would
like
to
have
commissioner
ellsworth
take
the
next
agenda
item
and
provide
us
with
some
poet
laureate
work.
Group
updates.
A
K
You
sure
thing
so:
hi
friends,
poet,
laureate
work
group
initiative
is
continuing
to
move
along
we've
been
meeting
about
every
two
weeks,
pretty
consistently
on
tuesdays.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you,
jack
for
running
our
admin
work
for
that
to
keep
us
on
track
and
also
for
formulating
some
awesome
documentation.
Out
of
what
was
you
know,
consistent
conversations
over
the
course
of
those
meetings,
we
were
able
to
present
those
ideas
yesterday
at
the
public
hearing
for
the
budget.
K
So
if
anybody
wants
to
review
it,
it
is
up
and
available
on
the
city's
youtube
channel
right
now,
it's
a
relatively
short
meeting.
I
was
pretty
surprised
that
I
was
one
of
only
about
five
speakers
from
the
community
that
had
input
on
the
budget.
So
I
was,
I
was
nervous
that
it
was
only
one
of
us
representing
and
then
I
thought
well
one
of
five.
You
know
pretty
pretty
good
on
that
front.
K
I'm
committed
that
if
this
doesn't
make
its
way
into
the
budget
for
2022
as
we
envision
for
an
april
announcement
that
I'm
in
it
for
the
long
haul,
so
I
would
really
like
to
push
forward
to
make
sure
that
this
is
something
that
happens
for
our
community,
and
I
am
very
appreciative
that
matt
was
called
in
to
have
a
role
in
this
work.
K
You
know,
I
think
that
was
something
in
the
past
few
years
of
my
time
on
on
the
commission
we've
really
been
advocating
for,
and
so
that
was
a
nice
use
where
council
members
approached
us
with
an
idea
for
for
support.
So
that
said,
our
working
group
is
by
no
means
a
committed
tight
group
of
nobody
else.
Welcome
if
any
other
commissioner
wants
to
show
throw
their
hat
in
the
ring
and
join
our
group
you're
welcome
to.
Currently
we
have
representation
from
the
literary
center
lucia.
K
There
have
helped
moved
forward
an
initiative
in
pittsburgh
for
poet
laureate,
so
she's
been
a
really
tremendous
resource
for
our
group
and
we
have
support
through
hennepin
county
libraries
and
then
we're
going
to
continue
to
to
broaden
our
outreach
in
a
mindful
way.
So
that's
gonna
be
maybe
more
talking
points
for
our
next
meeting
lucy
reached
out
to
and
wanted
to
know
where
some
of
those
documents
lived
online.
So
if
anyone
has
interest
under
the
general
tabs
on
teams,
you
just
click
on
files
and
I
created
a
folder-
that's
called
poet
laureate
working
documents.
K
So
that's
what
we're
going
on.
It
also
includes
two
pdfs
that
we
shared
for
the
public
record
when
we
submitted
for
the
public
hearing
yesterday.
So
that's
where
we
stand
now,
it's
it's
not
really
a
sit
back
and
wait.
It's
a
continue
to
drive
and
move
forward
and
try
to
get
this
flushed
out
as
much
as
we
can
with
the
knowledge
that
someday
it's
gonna
happen.
I
just
hope
it's
really
soon.
J
Yeah,
it's
me,
I
did
find
all
those
files,
but
I
wondered
I
thought
you
had
said
that
there
was
some
kind
of
a
summary
of
the
research
that
you
did
from
other
cities
approach
to
poet
laureates
and
I
didn't
find
that
on
there
I
opened
everything
else,
so
I
saw
the
rest
of
them.
Did
I
just
miss
it
or
is
it
just
called
something
different
or
does
it
not
exist?
I
misunderstood.
K
Or
or
no
that's
not
one
of
the
documents
that's
uploaded,
but
I
did
email
you
some
of
the
key
references,
so
that
was
like
email
conversations
within
our
work
group
and
then
developed
through
the
course
of
those
those
bi-weekly
meetings
that
we've
been
having.
But
I
sent
a
message
that
has
some
you
know:
top
top
ones
for
poet,
laureate
ships
and
also
one
for
youth
poet
laureates
that
we
looked
at
in
drafting
our
own.
K
A
I
just
want
to
call
out
something
that
I've
been
thinking
about
a
lot
as
I've
been
observing
this
process
and
thanks
everyone
for
including
me
and
I
have
not
been
participating
in
the
worker.
But
I've
been
privy
to
a
lot
of
updates
and
just
how
the
work
is
advancing,
and
I
just
think
it's
worth
noting
that
you
know
we
had
council
members
who
reach
out
to
mac
to
advance
something
that
did
not
exist
and
that
through
some
really
great
strategy,
this
is
manifesting.
A
So
the
formal
adoption
that
we
did
of
the
work
group,
the
public
documents
that
were
generated-
and
just
I
just
think,
it's
interesting
to
note
the
strategy.
That's
behind
this,
coming
to
life,
for
our
own
learning
that,
like
working
with
our
elected
an
agenda
item
that
they
care
about
and
and
how
this
has
moved
forward,
serves
as
a
pretty
interesting
template
for
what
other
types
of
work
that
may
be
similar
to.
This
could
look
like,
and
it
is
a
heavy
lift.
A
There
has
been
very,
very,
very
many
hours
of
research
conversations
meetings
and
we
know
those
players
on
our
team
have
done
a
tremendous
job
with
this,
but
I
think
it's
just
worth
noting
that
it
really
is
demonstrating
how
we
can
move
work
forward.
That
did
not
have
a
home,
and
so
that's
just
exciting
to
me
because
it
just
shows
like
this
is
a
growth
moment
for
us
and
it's
very
much
with
a
lot
of
thanks
to
the
people
who
are
really
working
hard
on
this.
L
Yeah,
I
I
think
that's
actually
really
something
that
we
should
be
able
to
note
as
possibly
something
that
we
can
know
that
we
need
in
the
future
right.
So
I
think
it's
we
had
great
thought
leaders.
We
had
great
artists,
we
had
you
know
admin
support.
You
know
and
I
think
that
creating
a
team
to
advance
any
sort
of
initiative
going
forward.
L
A
I
just
think
this
is
a
really
great
best
kind
of
demonstration
of
how
we
can
advance
and
certainly
everything
will
be
different
and
have
different
variables
and
levels
of
complexity.
But
it's
just
it's
a
great
template
for
us
to
consider
so
yeah.
Thank
you
for
letting
me
reflect
on
that
a
little
bit.
Any
other
questions
concerns
comments
about
poet,
warrior
work
group.
K
A
My
comment
would
be:
it
was
very
well
prepared
and
very
articulately
expressed.
We
clearly
have
a
talented
speaker
on
our
team,
who
is
able
to
articulate
the
key
talking
points
really
well,
and
I
I
felt
made
a
really
great
case
and
I
did
get
feedback
from
one
artist
today,
who
said,
I
had
no
idea
that
we
didn't
have
a
poet
laureate.
How
is
that
even
possible?
How
is
it
not
you
know
like,
and
so
there
is
some
visibility
happening
here
too,
within
the
arts
sector.
A
That's
also
important
part
of
being
able
to
move
stuff
forward.
So
that's
nice
to
hear
even
as
it
was
like,
we
know
we
know
we
wanted
to.
We
definitely
feel
it's
important
and
that's
why
we're
working
so
hard
on
it.
So
so.
A
Oh,
that's
great
to
know
too
awesome.
Thank
you.
Okay,
any
other
comments.
Questions
feel
free
to
watch,
lana's
presentation
to
the
budget
committee
and
send
her
any
feedback
or
questions
you
might
have
to
or
participate
if
you
wish
to
jump
in
there's
room.
Okay.
The
next
item
on
our
agenda
is
the
draft
mac
work
plan
discussion.
So
we
are
at
6
30
and
we
also
have
some
action
learning
team
updates.
I
think
a
lot
of
the
updates
will
exist
within
the
work
plan
discussion,
but
I
just
want
to
be
mindful
of
that.
A
I'm
not
sure
how
many
of
you
have
had
a
chance
to
review
the
work
plan
documents
ahead
of
us
meeting
this
evening.
Hopefully
you
were
able
to
take
a
look
at
it.
I
also
just
want
to
ask
like
do
we
want
to
go
through
so
there's
there's
four.
A
Clearly,
four
subcommittee
groups
right
that
have
this
draft
plan:
do
we
want
to
walk
through
each
of
them
and
have
the
chairs
of
each
of
these
groups
sort
of
give
a
high
level
and
then
just
discuss
one
by
one
and
maybe
give
a
couple
of
minutes
to
each
for
people
who
might
have
questions
about
those
priors?
Does
that
sound
like
an
okay
to
organize
us?
Okay,
all
right,
I'm
seeing
some
head
shapes?
Yes,
so
we
will
start
then
with,
and
I
would
it
be
helpful
for
me
to
share
my
screen.
A
A
Click
it
and
it
gives
me
nothing
but
a
blank
black
okay.
So
well,
then
I'll
drop
it
in
the
chat
and
if
anybody
is
able
to
get
a
share
screen,
maybe
I
don't
know
tina
or
mary
if
you
can
but
I'll
drop
it
in
the
chat
and
we'll
just
keep
moving
okay,
let's
start
with
exec,
so
I'm
just
going
to
go
ahead
and
read
this
off.
A
Clearly,
we
have,
let's
see
myself,
commissioner
ellsworth
commissioner
bedbury
swinton
thompson,
who
are
serving
and
have
served
and
are
going
to
continue
to
serve
as
far
as
I
am
aware-
and
we
do
have
an
additional
seat
available
for
a
vice
chair.
If
someone
is
interested,
we
meet
monthly,
the
second
tuesday
of
the
month
from
five
to
six
via
ms
teams,
so
like
basically
the
tuesday
before
this
meeting
in
the
evening
and
our
key,
our
key,
I
think
work
is
that
we
advance
the
agendas
for
every
month.
A
So
we
discuss
that,
but
there's
a
whole
lot
of
other
conversations
that
happen.
So
item
number
two
is
supporting
the
completion
of
the
2022
work
plans
for
all
the
action
learning
teams.
So
we
do
have
representatives
from
each
of
those
teams
that
do
report
out
to
exec.
So
it's
a
really
nice
group
to
have
kind
of
a
sounding
board
for
the
work
that
each
group
is
advancing
and
then
seeing.
How
does
that
need
to
fit
into
the
agenda
and
any
other?
A
You
know,
concerns
or
just
items
that
we
need
to
discuss
or
figure
out
or
provide
some
leadership,
for.
We
have
identified
three
key
priorities
which
we
are
articulating
in
this
now
item
number
one
is
diversity,
equity
inclusion
and
I
do
feel
like
there
could
be
some
more
specificity
applied
to
that
priority,
but
for
right
now
without
having
those
conversations,
and
that
might
be
a
retreat
item
too
about
what
does
that
exactly
mean?
How
do
we
prioritize
that
throughout
all
of
our
alts,
but
for
right
now?
A
This
is
a
priority
for
us
and
we
are
asking
everyone
to
continue
to
have
this,
be
something
that
you
are
looking
through,
the
lens
of
dei
with
all
decision
making
and
prioritizing
that
in
all
of
the
work
that
we're
doing.
The
second
key
priority
is
the
development
of
the
new
department
of
art
and
cultural
affairs.
A
So
we
wish
for
that
to
be
a
through
line
in
all
of
our
action
teams
and
subcommittees
that
we
are
figuring
that
out
and
and
prioritizing
it
throughout
our
work
plans
for
2022
and
then
the
third
item
is
the
development
and
implementation
of
the
poet
laureate
initiative.
So
that
too
is
an
initiative
that
we
have
adopted
and
that
we
want
to
form
that
we
formally
adopted
and
that
we
want
to
have
show
up
and
most
all
of
our
action
learning
teams
work
in
some
way.
A
So
we
haven't
really
had
a
chance
to
talk
about
that
in
depth.
So
I
guess
I'll
stop
here.
Is
there
any
questions
or
concerns
about
kind
of
the
second
item
on
execs
just
about
those
key
priorities
and
again,
if
you
have
feedback
after
the
meeting,
because
we
are
a
little
short
on
time
to
deep
dive
on
this?
I
welcome
those
conversations
because
we
want
to
we
want
to
adopt
this
next
month,
and
so
we
want
to
get
to
done
and
we'll
be
sending
more.
A
You
know
another
round
of
drafts
around
for
people
to
send
feedback
for
so
anything,
that's
coming
up
for
anybody
in
this
moment
right
now,
you're
gonna
keep
moving.
I
don't
see
any
hands.
L
Just
very
quickly,
so
we
had
a
dei
committee
where
we
still
do
at
the
university
at
the
institute
on
the
environment
and
we
decided
to
adopt
justice
as
well.
I
think
that's
a
really
important,
not
just
because
it's
another
letter
on
top
of
dei,
but
I
I
think
it
really
encompasses
a
lot
of
things
that
a
lot
of
artists
are
really
concerned
about
right
now
and
whether
that
be
climate
justice
or
you
know,
justice,
you
know
social
justice
or
whatever.
So
I
I
would.
A
It's
great
feedback-
and
I
see
some
head
snapping-
would
love
to
hear
from
anybody
else.
I
did
note
that
in
my
draft
that
I
have
open
on
my
desktop
too
and
included
it,
and
so
we
will
talk
about
that
when
we
review
this
draft
again,
but
welcome
any
other
feedback.
I
see
his
head's
shaking
okay.
Thank
you
for
that
awesome.
Anybody
else,
three
priorities.
Okay.
A
Item
number
three
is
seating
all
commissioners
on
alts,
so
as
we
hopefully
receive
more
applications
and
are
able
to
seat
more
of
these
vacancies,
it
is
the
execs
committee's
job
to
just
make
sure
that
everybody
gets
onto
an
alt,
and
I
just
want
to
note
that
commissioner
mabius,
we
did
not
do
that
immediately
and
that
was
because
jack
so
generously
jumped
in
on
the
poet
laureate
work
group,
and
that
was
a
heavy
lift,
so
really
excited
that
jack's
considering
the
public
art
alt
and
I
think
that'll
be
a
great
fit
so
item
number
four
is
generating
a
plan
with
clearly
defined
outcomes
and
execute
for
a
full
commission
retreat
for
quarter
one
it's
a
little
bit
of
an
ambitious
goal.
A
We
wanted
to
do
a
retreat.
This
year,
but
we
with
the
work
plan
coming
up
events,
poet
laureate-
it
was
just
everyone-
is
working,
really
hard
right
now
and
so
adding
that
did
feel
like
something
that
we
might
be
able
to
do
a
little
better
job
on
defining
what
those
outcomes
will
be
if
we
execute
it
in
the
first
quarter,
so
between
january
and
march,
so
more
to
come
about
that
and
then
lastly,
delegating
the
creation
and
completion
of
an
end
a
year
report,
so
that
is
execs
work
plan.
A
I
Go
ahead.
Oh
there,
it
is.
I
A
I
We
are
going
to
generate
and
follow
through
on
a
plan
for
facilitating
incentivized
participation
in
a
convening
of
artists
who
have
already
completed.
That
part
is
already
done,
surveys
about
working
internally
at
the
city
and
that
we
aim
to
happen
in
quarter
one.
I
We
are
going
to
develop
a
recruitment
strategy
and
on
or
refine
whatever
it's
we
already
have
some
of
the
stuff
go
over
the
recruitment
strategy
and
onboarding
process
of
new
commissioners
to
fill
vacancies
while
meeting
the
goals
of
diversity,
inclusion
practices,
which
could
probably
be
tagged
on
to
most
of
these
goals.
I
think
a
key
word
in
that
is
onboarding
process.
I
That's
something
that
we're
gonna,
we're
hoping
to
strengthen,
coordinating
and
connecting
with
guest
artists
and
or
visits
in
the
community
when
allowed
to
arts
organizations
for
monthly
meetings,
so
artists
and
or
get
art.
I
And
then
we
really
hope
to
partner
with
emerging
the
emerging
department
of
arts
and
cultural
affairs
staff
to
kind
of
bolster
that
goal
of
increasing
participation
and
inclusivity
in
the
arts
in
general
in
minneapolis.
But
I
think
we're
all
looking
to
be
a
part
of
that
work
too,
and
I
know
the
commission's
hopefully
gonna
be
involved
as
a
whole.
But
we
can
maybe
like
take
the
lead
or
manage
some
of
that
partnership.
A
At
this
point,
I
really
appreciate
that
I'm
seeing
those
priorities
showing
up
too
in
the
in
your
work
plan
for
the
year,
I
I
wonder
if
there
is
an
opportunity
to
call
out
how
access
might
engage
with
poet
laureate
initiative
too,
and
maybe
that
just
is
part
of
one
of
the
items
that
is
already
there,
but
just
thinking
about
like
if,
if
and
when
there
is
an
open
call,
for
example,
or
there
is
an
opportunity
for
artists
to
come
to
the
table
and
I'm
not
sure-
and
we
talked
we
know
right
now-
that
the
poet
laureate
work
group
is
comprised
of
several
people
who
serve
on
different
teams
and
so
how
that
work
rolls
out
is
kind
of
yet
to
be
seen
depending
on
decisions
that
are
made
right
and
how,
if
the
project
is
funded
and
all
those
sorts
of
things,
so
we
may
be
providing
some
updates,
but
just
something
to
be
thinking
about.
G
I
think
that's
a
good
point
joan.
I
don't
know
if
we
have
anybody
on
the
poet
laureate
work
group,
so
we
might
we'll
we'll
huddle
up,
and
maybe
maybe
maybe
it's
okay,
all
right.
We're
good.
Okay,.
I
Helpful
in
general,
maybe-
and
we
can
talk
about
this
at
our
meeting-
but
in
general,
like
an
intentional
focus
on
kind
of
amplifying
or
working
to
increase
communication
around
opportunities
in
the
city
in
general,
so
poet,
laureate
being
one
of
them,
but
other
aspects
as
well
other
opportunities
as
well,
but
we
can
talk.
A
A
Okay,
commissioner
ellsworth,
do
you
wanna?
I
don't
know
if
you
wanna
go
ahead
and
just
click
run
through.
K
No
problem,
you
know
a
lot
of
this
did
have
some
overlap
in
the
laureate
conversation,
so
we
can
kind
of
move
through
at
a
good
pace
here
for
policy
and
advocacy
this
year,
we're
looking
to
develop
a
plan
for
mac's
role
with
the
newly
created
department
of
arts
and
cultural
affairs
and
helping
to
guide
mac
advocacy
on
all
those
budgetary
items
and
also
provide
support
as
needed.
K
K
One
way
to
absorb
those
new
initiatives
is
gonna,
be
to
strengthen
our
communications
with
council
members
with
city
staff
and
with
the
department
at
hand,
tracking
mac's
outreach,
biannually
and
also
seeking
accountability
as
we
grow.
Those
opportunities
will
be
used
as
a
proactive
resource
for
policy
projects
going
forward
support
of
the
poet
laureate
working
group
across
all
alts.
I
think
that's
what
we
were
just
discussing,
so
I
think
we
do
have
good
representation.
Thanks
to
mandy,
for
being,
you
know,
from
access
and
engagement
and
then
if
jack
joins
the
public
art
advisory
panel.
K
I
think
we'll
be
a
well-rounded
group,
because
ahab
and
I
are
both
serving
right
now
in
policy
and
advocacy
that
way,
we
can
all
act
as
a
sounding
board
for
broader
mac
engagement
too,
because
I
anticipate
that
there'll
be
more
opportunities,
as
this
picks
up
steam.
K
In
addition
to
that,
we
want
to
track
and
assist
revising
art
policy
initiatives
on
a
city
level
working
in
collaboration
with
the
one
and
only
fabulous
mary
altman.
So
mary
has
graciously
mentioned
that
she
may
join
in
our
december
meeting.
So
I'm
going
to
find
the
invite
to
forward
your
way
mary,
but
I
was
just
looking
at
the
calendar
today
and
it's
set
for
december
1st
at
1
30..
K
So
if
that's
something
that
works
for
you,
if
it
does
not,
we
can
certainly
reschedule
around
your
calendar
because
I
know
you're
a
very
busy
lady
and
we
certainly
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
what
initiatives
we
can
move
forward
with
you
through
the
city
level,
through
policy
and
advocacy
for
so
that
is.
That's
where
it
stands
right
now.
The
one
thing
that
certainly
needs
to
be
reflected
here
is
some
more
edi
j
initiatives.
K
If
you
will
so
that
I've
been
looking
right
now
at
some
of
the
resources
on
the
city
of
minneapolis
website,
you
know
some
of
the
three
programming
and
initiatives
that
I
think
sean
talked
to
us
about
last
year
and
so
just
kind
of
revisiting
some
of
those
documents
revisiting
those
online
resources
to
see
what
we
can
call
on
that
makes.
The
most
sense
for
our
team
is
what
we're
going
to
be
looking
at
at
additions
before
these
are
formally
adopted.
A
We
are
becoming
a
lot,
I
think
cohesive
and
working
together
and
getting
things
done
and
kind
of
knowing
our
roles
and
responsibilities
and
becoming
more
defined,
at
least
as
far
as
I
can
tell-
and
I'm
happy
to
discuss
this
further,
but
where
you
see
some
of
the
gray
emerging
like
who's
responsible
for
what,
where
there
is
some
it
kind
of
feels
to
me
like
we
are
reaching
a
point
where
our
subcommittees
can
also
be
collaborating
a
little
bit.
A
So
I
think
that
we're
getting
just
a
little
bit
more
sophisticated
in
the
fact
that
we're
able
to
do
a
little
more
and
can
take
on
a
little
bit
more
than
we
have,
and
so
hopefully,
some
of
that
collaboration
will
manifest
through
exact
because
it
has
representation
from
all
the
teams,
and
we
might
want
to
think
about
that
too.
A
But
I
just
I'm
proud
that
some
of
us
now
have
been
working
with
each
other
for
a
while
and
we're
getting
getting
kind
of
slick
at
being
able
to
get
stuff
done,
pretty
timely
and
efficiently.
So
just
hats
off
about
that,
but
yeah.
So
so
a
little
bit
of
more
of
a
deij
focus
within
this
policy
work
plan
is
kind
of
one
of
the
goals
for
our
next
meeting.
I'm
imagining
lana
that
we'll
talk
about
there
and
then
we'll
come
back
with
our
final
drafts
after
exec
meets
next.
A
Okay,
so
I
did
draft
the
public
art
advisory
committee
goals
just
because
I
had
done
them
in
the
past
and
they're,
not
that
much
different.
One
of
the
things
about
that
committee.
That's
really
different
than
the
other
groups
is
that
there
is
really
specific
set
of
work
before
them
monthly.
That
is
honestly
at
times
very,
very
time
consuming.
There
can
be,
I
mean.
A
Typically,
there
will
be
a
couple
of
extra
long
meetings
throughout
the
years
through
curating,
bigger
projects,
and
so
there's
not
as
much
independent
work
that
that
really
moves
forward
initiatives
that
mac
is
focused
on
outside
of
the
work
that
just
needs
to
be
done.
I
hope
that
makes
sense
and
our
representation
on
that
public
art
advisory
committee
is
not
only
a
part
of
the
bylaws,
but
it's
just
super
important
work
that
we
do
so.
A
I
will
drop
this
in
here
and
so
you'll
see
that
there's
just
it's
just
a
little
set
up
a
little
bit
differently.
So
right
now
it's
commissioner
mansfield
and
commissioner
smith.
So
it's
got
a
a
little
bit
of
a
lean
representation,
but
if
we
get
another
commissioner
in
that
seat,
I
think
that
will
be
helpful.
They
meet
one
time
per
month,
3
30
first
wednesday
of
the
month
item
two:
is
that
they'll
continue
to
move
public
art
approvals,
to
consent,
agenda
with
new
criteria
and
processes,
and
that
hasn't
been
entirely
finalized.
A
But
I
think
that's
something
that
we're
looking
at
to
try
to
get
done
as
well.
There's
been
a
lot
of
work
and
policy
has
done
a
lot
of
work
in
lana,
specifically
about
figuring
out
how
we
can
better
that
process.
A
I
apologize
if
I'm
not
articulating
that
quite
correct,
but
in
the
past
we
really
focused
on
moving
stuff
to
consent
agenda
as
much
as
possible,
and
then
we
realized
that
we
swung
too
far,
and
so
now
we
want
to
just
kind
of
balance
that
out
a
little
bit
and
make
sure
that
this
group
is
getting
updates
as
needed,
especially
for
some
of
these
really.
You
know
really
large
projects
and
big
investments
for
the
city
that
we're
holding
hands
with
those
teams
and
those
artists.
A
More
so
working
with
the
director
of
public
art
on
public
art
policy
updates.
So
this
team
will
be
working
as
well
on
some
of
those
policy
updates
that
will
happen
so
again,
you're
seeing
a
little
bit
of
collaborative
opportunities
happening
between
policy
and
public
art.
So
definitely
that
will
want
input
from
both
groups
assisting
with
and
enrolling
mac
members
to
participate
in
public
art,
review
and
selection
panels
for
city
art
projects.
A
So
there's
stuff
that
comes
up
within
the
public
art
committee,
that
and
opportunities,
and
so
that's
something
that
won't
be
limited
to
the
public
art
committee,
necessarily
that,
obviously
we
extend
to
other
mac
members
and
then
prioritizing
dei
will
add
the
j
in
all
of
these
efforts
and
that's
been
demonstrated.
I
think
in
some
of
some
of
the
most
amazing
ways
this
past
year.
A
I
want
to
really
thank
commissioner
mansfield,
who
has
also
just
brought
a
lot
of
stuff
to
the
forefront
and
been
really
just
wonderfully
proactive
and
getting
us
to
a
place
where
we're
doing
really
good
work
and
being
very
thorough
and
prioritizing
cultural
considerations
for
our
projects
and
then
participating
in
the
development
of
the
new
department
of
art
and
cultural
affairs.
So
clearly,
public
art
will
have
a
big
role
in
that
department,
and
so
what
does
that
look
like?
And
how
does
that
evolve?
A
Okay,
awesome,
we're
kind
of
staying
on
task
here.
So
just
a
quick
update
about
the
timeline,
then
I
apologize
and
see
our
next
exec
committee
meeting.
Then
I
believe
is
tuesday
december
14th
and
I'm
sorry
tuesday
december
7th.
I'm
sorry
tina.
A
If
you
don't
mind,
double
checking
that
for
me,
so
your
groups
will
need
to
meet
again
and
just
get
whatever
your
final
edits
are
based
on
our
conversation
this
evening
and
whatever
else
arises
for
you,
so
that
exec
can
review
it
at
our
next
meeting
and
then
propose
it
to
be
formally
adopted
and
getting
to
done
with.
This
is
a
really
awesome
thing
for
us
to
be
able
to
accomplish
at
our
next
meeting.
So
is
there
any
questions
about
timeline.
A
Okay,
so
if
you,
if
you
either,
you
can
send
your
final
draft
with
your
person
who
is
representing
your
group
to
the
exec
meeting,
it
would
be
helpful
if
you
could
send
it
the
day
before
so
so.
Nerds
like
me,
can
read
it
and
formulate
some
thoughts,
but
if
that
isn't
possible
totally
okay,
we'll
talk
about
it
exactly
so.
A
Awesome.
All
right
next
item
is
updates.
Alt
updates
and
we
have
about
10
minutes
here,
we're
gonna
executive
committee.
I
don't
have
any
updates
unless
anybody
really
our
update,
is
just
advancing
this
work
plan
process
right
now,
okay,
we
will
move
on
to
policy
and
advocacy
there,
and
I
know
that
a
lot
of
the
updates
have
been
shared
so
far
and
has
been
work
plan
related,
but
I'm
not
sure
long.
If
there's
anything.
In
addition,
you
wanted
to
share
for
updates
for
policy.
K
I
think
I
looped
that,
in
with
the
work
plan,
just
that
we're
going
to
be
connecting
more,
you
know
with
mary
about
about
city
level,
initiatives
too,
that
policy
can
work
on
and
move
forward.
I
do
think
that
it's
worth
mentioning
too,
that
we're
always
looking
on
how
to
like
cross-pollinate
these
subcommittees
like,
where
might
there
be
overlap,
and
one
one
area
we
have
discussed,
is
that
policy
and
advocacy
could
have
a
really
clear
overlap
with
the
art
advisory
and
also
with
city
staff.
L
It
is,
I
have
we
thought
about
any
sort
of
like
dashboard
or
metrics
that
we're
tracking
in
these
initiatives,
because
I
think
that
could
be
a
really
powerful
tool
to
be
able
to
come
to
the
city.
Council
and
you
know,
come
to
the
public
with
you
know.
This
is
what
mac's
doing,
and
this
is
how
we're
doing
it,
and
this
is
how
we're
moving
forward
with
these
initiatives,
but
not
the
easiest
things
to
come
up
with,
but
once
they
are
powerfully
crafted.
L
I
think
that
they
are
a
really
powerful
tool,
so
I
would
just
suggest
that
perhaps
consideration
of
some
sort
of
dashboard
metrics
on
on
what
we're
doing
and
how
we're
doing
it
and
how
we're
moving
forward
or
or
even
what
we
need
to
work
on
right
like
we
recognize
that
you
know,
there's
been,
you
know:
13
public
art
pieces
this
year
and
there's
only
like
10
this
year,
or
you
know
what
I
mean,
and
so
I
I
would
just
I
I
think
it's
a
really
powerful
tool
and
if
we
can
implement
it
without
too
much
you
know
hassle.
A
A
We
have
some
new
people
coming
in,
and
so
I
think
that's
part
of
the
priority
of
the
policy
team
too,
to
just
think
about
how
can
we
once
again
institute
a
good
canvassing
effort
about
what
we
need
to
be
sharing
with
our
council
members
and
provide
talking
points
and
materials
then,
and
a
way
to
support
all
of
you
to
be
able
to
do
that?
A
So
that's
one
of
the
things
that
I'm
excited
to
focus
on,
because
I
want
to
put
some
capacity
into
that
because
it
does
take
capacity
to
do
it
and
a
lot
of
our
folks
are
really
busy.
So
I
think
that'll
probably
be
something
that
I'll
bring
up
with.
Policy
too,
is
just
that.
How
do
we?
A
How
do
we
get
you
guys
ready
to
get
out
there
and
meet
with
your
council
members
and
show
them
the
work
that
we
intend
to
do
and
find
out
what
their
agendas
are?
Some
of
them
being
new
to
the
council
and
being
like
hey
we're
here
to
serve
and
we
have
constituents
and
we
are
very
excited
about
our
relationship
and
our
working
relationship
with
you
and
what
what
would
you
like
to
see
as
well?
So
that's
forthcoming.
I
know
that
we
wanted
to
do
that.
Canvassing
effort
this
quarter
with
this
work
plan.
A
I
don't
know
that.
That's
a
realistic
goal
for
us
with
everything
that's
on
the
table
right
now,
but
certainly
if
you
feel
you
have
the
capacity
to
get
some
feedback
from
your
council
member
before
we
finalize
the
work
plan,
I
would
encourage
you
to
do
that,
but
again
without
a
really
clear
process.
I
I
think
that's
just
it's
just
not
going
to
be
in
the
in
the
mix
this
time,
but
it
will
be
good
to
get
their
feedback
coming.
You
know
in
the
in
the
near
future,
I'll
play
quarter.
One
andy.
C
Never
mind
you
answered
at
that
very
said:
quarter
one
I
was
like
because
we
have
new.
We
have.
I
have
a
new
city
council
person
starting.
So
that's
what
I
was
asking.
Never.
I
A
No,
I'm
glad
you're
thinking
about
that.
That's
good
it'll
be
helpful.
Again,
we
will
want
to
just
be
strategic
about
what
we
are
bringing
you
know.
So
there
may
be
some
poet
laureate
push
there
may
be
some
pay
development
department
push
or
it
may
just
be
hi
welcome
and
I'm
your
commissioner,
you
know
so
I
think
we
just
have
to
give
that
a
little
bit
more
thought
and
hopefully
not
overwhelm,
but
just
really
start
to
keep
developing
these
relationships,
which
will
be
awesome
and
helpful.
A
Okay,
any
other
questions
comments,
lucy.
J
A
Yeah,
I
think
that,
like
a
clear
process
will
be
really
helpful
for
everybody,
so
we
can
talk
about
that
and
then
I
know
lana
had
made
a
really
awesome,
like
kind
of
template
for
us
to
follow,
so
maybe
just
providing
that
updating
that
and
you
know
making
sure
that
people
understand
how
to
use.
A
M
I'm
at
the
last
meeting
the
panel
did
their
first
look
at
the
draft
policies
for
the
portable
collection
and
made
comments.
M
I'm
now
shopping
them
around
internally
a
little
bit
and
then
I'm
gonna
meet
with
the
advocacy
committee
and
get
their
input
and
and
then
I
have
to
meet
with
the
internal
city
facilities
committee
and
then
they'll
go
back
to
the
panel.
Maybe
even
the
advocacy
committee
will
see.
A
Okay,
any
questions
comments,
okay
and
access
and
engagement
updates.
I
think
this
is
kind
of
exciting
and
then
we
will
have
one
item
that
I
want
to
add
before
we
leave
it'll
be
really
quick,
but
we're
going
to
have
tina
update
us
about
how
many
people
have
applied
to
be
on
the
commission.
That
she's
got
some
good
news
about
that.
So
access
take
it
away.
I
I
think
the
only
kind
of
quick
update
is
we
are
trying
to
plan
for
a
december
meeting
a
fun
time
party
time
artistic
time,
and
we
have
a
couple
thoughts
and
we've
been
just
kind
of
like
hemming
and
hanging
on
how
to
get
people's
input
because
of
all
the
kind
of
restrictions
around
our
communication.
I
So
I
think
we'll
just
have
to
be
sending
out
an
email
about
it
and
then
just
do
not
reply.
All
I'll
be
I'll,
be
coordinating
that
stuff
or
I
can.
I
can
do
that
fielding
reply
to
me.
Do
not
reply
all
and
then
we'll
take
it
from
there,
but
yeah
we're
gonna
get
cracking
on
that.
A
Awesome-
and
I
know
that
next
month's
meeting
is
going
to
be
longer
by
45
minutes
approximately,
depending
on
what
the
plan
is,
so
just
if
you,
without
knowing
exactly
what
that
plan
is,
if
you
don't
mind
on
your
calendars,
just
reserving
some
additional
time
and
then
more
to
come
with
that.
So
thank
you.
Access
for
this
is
so
hard
to
plan
in
these
times.
So
thank
you
for
taking
it
on
it's
exciting
anything
else:
okay,
tina.
How
many
applications
do
we
have?
You
said
we
have
some.
B
Yeah,
so
we
have
two
commissioners
that
reapplied
and
then
I
have
four
and
I
believe,
I'm
waiting
on
one
more
from
your
recommendation.
So
we
have
we'll
have
five
applications.
Yes,
so
a
total
of
seven.
B
A
News
to
end
tonight
on
thanks
tina,
I
appreciate
that
and
mari
and
mandy-
and
I
have
been
our
interview
committee,
and
so
we
will
continue
as
far
as
I
am
aware
and
try
to
find
times
to
get
these
people
through
if
anybody
wishes
to
be
participate
in
that,
certainly
you
are
welcome.
It's
always
fun
to
meet
new
people
and
see
what
they're
passionate
about.
We
will
continue
to
use
to.
A
I
prioritize
in
that
process,
and
that's
been
we've
made
that
real
clear,
that
that
is
a
big
priority
for
us.
So
any
other
comments,
feedback
about
that.
