I hope this proposal finds you all well and excited for a fresh season of Public Art. Over the previous 2 years there has been some weather damage accumulated on my public art mural: Line Segment 2019. Located in the Art Pit. There has been an issue with due to weather changes causing water to drain on the right facing right quarter of my mural. This problem doesn’t seem to be an issue on the remainder of the mural with excepLon of the water leaking from the upper street level on the right facing porLon. I have created 2 Plan choices for mural refreshing. Plan A- Damaged surface Repair through sanding and cleaning. Followed by a repaint of the right side where damage has taken place. (Example A) Total cost: $8,000 Plan B- To be repaired with sanding and cleaning of the damaged areas of the right side from center. Followed by a repainLng of the enLre right side with a new color paleXe. The new PaleXe of the right side would be painted out and repainted in Black, White and Grey. This would be a metaphoric nod to the era of the midcentury. This also speaks to an era of black and white entertainment through technology. This is for the preservaLonist, enthusiasts. This piece is something for everyone. For those that here in and for those visiLng Palm Springs. (Example B) Total Cost: 10,000 Scope of work: Work to commence TBD. To be scheduled upon commission approval and release of deposit funds. Work will be scheduled to take up to 10 days to complete. Work must be preformed in stages to allow for proper curing of paints. PainLng schedule will be as follows (upon approval)- Day 1- address damage with sanding blocks steel wool. Followed by a wipe down with a mild soap and water mixture. Day 2- Masking and painLng in base coats. Black, blue followed by yellow. Day 3- Gradients and colors are applied with aerosol and sprayed paints Day 4- Second coats are applied Day 5- Touch ups are made. Day 6- Gradients are touched up and applied to the lightest colors. Day 7- Off Day 8- Silver porLons are masked and resprayed Day 9- final touch ups and clean up Day 10- Apply stencil signature and date with final detail touch ups. Complete. All work will be documented with photos. Along with daily site reports to a City Art Commission RepresentaLve. Thank you for your consideraLon.

Grants of $5,000 will be awarded to qualified projects, with an emphasis on projects in areas underrepresented in the city’s existing public art collection. The Public Arts Commission will periodically make new funding available and welcomes applications at any time. The Art is Everywhere Neighborhood Grant Program grew out of the Art is Here celebration in 2019 marking the Palm Springs Public Arts Commission’s 30th anniversary. Originally launched in the spring of 2020 and then put on hold because of the pandemic, the grant program is now back with the same goal: to encourage everyone to consider how art can enhance where we live, work, and play, and to bring art to more shared spaces throughout the city. WHAT TYPES OF PROJECTS QUALIFY? Public art comes in many forms. It can include mini-murals, shade structures, lighting, benches, park programs, and performances. The best projects will have community buy- in, engage with residents, and enhance community spaces, whether for an afternoon or a long time to come. While long-term or permanent art pieces can qualify for grants, grantees are responsible for any ongoing maintenance and upkeep. The Public Arts Commission encourages applicants to raise additional funds, when needed, for projects exceeding $5,000. Applicants should be a recognized Palm Springs neighborhood association or business district. Artists and other community groups are encouraged to partner with a neighborhood association or business district for a proposal. The Public Arts Commission is happy to help make these connections. Grants will be awarded based on the project’s artistic integrity, community engagement, budget requirements, feasibility, and whether it serves an area in need of public art. Only qualifying projects will be funded. Grant recipients will not be eligible to apply for a subsequent grant. Palm Springs Public Arts Commission Neighborhood Grant Program INTERESTED? WHAT’S NEXT? Talk to your neighbors and community members and come up with an idea with wide support. A member of the Public Arts Commission can help answer any questions, assist in pairing you with a suitable artist, and otherwise support you as you prepare to apply. HOW TO APPLY Go to www.pspublicarts.com/grants and fill out an application. You will be asked to provide a short description of the project and outline an anticipated budget and timeline. A member of the Public Arts Commission will then contact you to discuss the project, make suggestions, and help prepare you to present the project to the full commission. Applications are always welcome. The Public Arts Commission may delay review until other projects are completed and funding is made available.
