City Endorsement of the Southlake Stampede Public Art Exhibit
Background Information
Follows the Painted Ponies of New Mexico concept
Life-size longhorn and longhorn calf statues are sponsored and given to local artists and young artists in Southlake schools to transfer into works of art
Longhorns placed on public exhibit in parks and vendor locations for approximately 1 year
Longhorns auctioned at Gala Benefits held by Southlake charities
Proceeds from:
Longhorns (50% to charities and 50% to fund public art)
Calves (50% to charities and 50% to fund arts education in Southlake Schools)
City Endorsement of the Southlake Stampede Public Art Exhibit
Behind the Basics
Statues that sponsors cannot host will be placed in city parks to draw attention to Southlake parks
Maps and tours will increase knowledge of our city and showcase parks
Events and merchandising opportunities abound;
coffee table book produced in conjunction with Southlake 50th Committee
Partnering with local Charitable organizations that hold Gala Benefits to auction statues at their event should provide a win-win situation.
Artists, sponsors and interested “to be” owners will be attracted to the event AND the city will not have to organize or plan it
City Endorsement of the Southlake Stampede Public Art Exhibit
Why the Longhorn?
Texas is the only state that maintains a herd of wild longhorns in our state parks.
Texas history cannot be told without the longhorn. The Longhorn carved a path in Texas legend. This remarkable animal with sweeping horns established our cattle industry and gave rise
to the American cowboy.
Longhorns originated from wild Spanish stock and escaped cows from early settlers. They thrived in the wild and Texas became their original home.
No other animal embodied our history or blessed the future more. From cattle drives and vaqueros to the cowboys known today, the passion, tradition & myth of the Longhorn is celebrated
around the world.
There is an urban legend in Southlake that a prior mayor commissioned a miniature bronze statue of a longhorn with the city logo as a brand to give to visiting dignitaries. We were
unable to verify this, but the story has been told and retold many times.
City Endorsement of the Southlake Stampede Public Art Exhibit
Great Ideas and Possibilities
Top artist submissions framed and made into works of art that can be auctioned off, or reserved as heritage pieces by the city to commemorate the event.
Longhorns and calves branded with the Southlake 50th commemorative logo.
Up to two printings of a coffee table book:
Will include information from the heritage & education committee to commemorate the 50th.
First printing, in 2006, will include longhorns, calves, artists, sponsors, and heritage information. Second printing, in 2007, we will add the results of the event.
A longhorn to commemorate the event could be chosen or reserved by the city. A special plaque to credit all participants, committees, sponsors, artists, and Council.
A longhorn could be gifted to our sister city.
And many more . . .
City Endorsement of the Southlake Stampede Public Art Exhibit
Track Record
Other public art campaigns of this type have raised from $18,000 to over 1 million dollars and the legacy of the public art event has lived on in annual events, merchandise and marketing
opportunities.
Campaigns have taken from 7 months to 2 ½ years.
As a general rule, the longer the public exhibition, the more money the statues get at auction.
No record has been found of a longhorn steer being used in any of the projects reviewed.
City Endorsement of the Southlake Stampede Public Art Exhibit

Artists
Key Points:
Project does not allow for any direct advertising of a product, company’s name, libel, slander, or social disrespect. However, subject to the Review Committee’s approval, an artist‘s
design that creatively produces a subtle and clever message associating the artwork with themes, products or missions will be considered.
Artists are reminded that this is a public display and all proposals must be appropriate for all audiences.
The importance of presenting as much of the creative depth of Southlake artists possible is emphasized.
The Review Committee reserves the right to reject artists’ submission as well as suggest changes to proposed designs. All designs are subject to the Review Committee’s discretion.

Texan.

Financial Considerations
Project kick-off requires $6,250. This amount has been approved for expenditure by the Southlake 50th committee from the 50th budget.
The $6,250 is reimbursed if the project meets target minimum for sponsorships (16)
If not met, the $6,250 is not recoverable
Once the target minimum is met, the longhorns pay for themselves via sponsorship fees
Project maximum is 50 longhorns and 50 calves
If maximum is met, the total expenditures are estimated at $238,855 (these expenditures will be completely recovered via sponsorship fees)
