Facility — Deputy Director of Community Services Edmondson presented an update on
the process to procure art work for the DPS North facility.
At their May meeting, Crime Control and Prevention District (CCPD) will review samples
of public safety themed art pieces that have already been commissioned and are ready
for purchase. If CCPD can select an artist/art piece from the samples, the process will
move forward. If an artist/art piece cannot be selected from the list, a Call to Artists will
be distributed, and selection and installation of the art may be delayed until after the
facility is open. Southlake Arts Council will be updated on the CCPD decision and
process at their May meeting.

Agenda Item No. 3B — Discussion: Future Fall 2013 Southlake Arts Council Events
— Southlake Arts Council member and APEX representative Terri Messing lead the
discussion about a September 2013 event.
One suggestion was to host, in partnership with Texas Oncology Associates and cancer
support groups, a reception and art exhibit with the theme of how cancer affects lives.
The current exhibit by Lilly Oncology that will be on display at the George Bush Library
was referenced as an example. A suggestion was made to include an activity that would
involve local schools or youth art classes, perhaps having an activity in the Southlake
Public Library.
Another suggestion was to have an exhibit that focuses on the importance of having
clean water sources. The thought was to have art work that represents water and
awareness of water issues and promotes conservation of water, appreciation for water,
and support to help others who don't have clean water.
Another suggestion was to host an exhibit featuring only Southlake artists.
The consensus of the Arts Council discussion was to move forward with the cancer
theme for the September 2013 event. Arts Council will gather ideas and research pieces
to continue discussion at the April meeting.
Agenda Item No. 4 - Public Forum: No one was present to address the Arts Council.
