Unanimous Voice Vote Approval Motion Adopted APPROVAL OF AGENDA Motion by Fisher, Seconded by Arbour to appove the agenda as presented. Unanimous Voice Vote Approval Motion Adopted CITIZENS WISHING TO ADDRESS THE COMMISSION None NEW BUSINESS A. DISCUSSION OF: ART SELECTION CRITERIA The Committee discussed the Art Selection Criteria that the Arts, Culture, and Heritage Committee had voted to include in their Master Plan document. The Committee gave consensus that adding a line-item scoring stipulation would prevent the installation of a piece of art with a major deficiency in one area. Motion Arbour, Seconded by Schmid to recommend to the Arts, Culture, and Heritage Committee the inclusion of an art selection criteria stipulation stating that during the scoring process, each scoring item will receive a 50% average score or better for a piece of art to be recommended to City Council. Unanimous Voice Vote Approval Motion Adopted B. CONSIDERATION OF: PURCHASE OF THE DRAGONFLY SCULPTURE The Committee discussed locations for future temporary art sculptures. Proposed future locations included: the pathway from Westridge to the Border-to-Border Trail, and along Alpine St. behind the Dairy Queen. The Committee also discussed creating a list of sculptures desired by the Committee for private entities to donate. Motion Arbour, Seconded by Bellas to recommend to City Council the purchase of the “Balancing Act” (a.k.a. Dragonfly) sculpture from Pamela Reithmeier for an amount not to exceed $5,600, and for the sculpture to remain in its current location in Mill Creek Park. Unanimous Voice Vote Approval Motion Adopted OLD BUSINESS A. DISCUSSION OF: BICYCLE SCULPTURE The Committee discussed the history of the bicycle sculpture and its previous vote on the topic. The Committee also discussed who has been responsible for the project, the funding sources for the project, and future processes. The Commission gave consensus that it was comfortable with the selection process that was followed for the temporary art sculptures, and that following a similar process for a bicycle sculpture would not necessarily remove donors’ input into the project. Motion Arbour, Seconded by Schmid to thank staff for their analysis, and to send to the Arts, Culture, and Heritage Committee and City Council a recommendation to proceed with a new permanent bicycle sculpture and to follow a selection process that matches the previously used temporary art selection process. Unanimous Voice Vote Approval Motion Adopted A. CONSIDERATION OF: LIONS SCULPTURE Motion by Fisher, Seconded by Schon to take a break at 7:58pm for the purposes of looking at the proposed site. Unanimous Voice Vote Approval Motion Adopted Motion by Arbour, Seconded by Fisher to reconvene at 8:17pm.

Unanimous Voice Vote Approval Motion Adopted The Committee reviewed the proposed Lions sculpture and asked questions of Dexter Lions Club representatives. The Committee discussed the proposed location and height of the sculpture pieces. Motion by Schmid, Seconded by Schon to recommend to City council that the City accept the Lions sculpture donation with the following conditions: That the guitar player be anchored on the same plane as the dog; That the dog not be raised to a level above the concrete; That the sculpture be placed in the Lions Park triangle between the bench closest to the new playground, the gazebo, and the sidewalk.

The deadline for submissions for this year’s Call for Artists was Wednesday, March 1, 2017. At the deadline, we received submissions from 8 sculptors. We received 1 submission late, on Friday, March 3rd (Tim Burke’s entry). On Tuesday, March 7th, the Arts, Culture, and Heritage Committee reviewed the slate of sculptures and has provided the following recommendation to the Art Selection Committee: Motion by Rinderknecht, support by Arbour to forward to the Art Selection Committee the following list of recommendations for installing temporary sculptures as part of the Dexter Art Gardens Temporary Sculpture Display: 1) Follow by Dane Porter to be installed between the steps down to Mill Creek Park and the Dexter Library. 2) A New Day by Douglas Gruizenga to be installed at LaFontaine Chevrolet. 3) Timeless by Mary Angers to be installed at the circular seating pad in Mill Creek Park 4) Sono by Barry Barker to be installed at the circular seating pad in Mill Creek Park 5) Slow Rolling by Todd Kime to be installed in the grassy area in front of 3-Bird Ayes: Noble, Fisher, Gregg, Rinderknecht, Bellas, Arbour, Davis, Babcock, Hubbard, Willoughby, and Schon, Nays: None Absent: None The Committee chose not to recommend four sculptures because they did not meet the theme of this year’s Call for Artists. These sculptures included: Sun to Moon Rotation, Single Twist – Mary Angers Down on the Farm II, Ambertrap – Barry Parker The Committee also chose not to recommend two sculptures because they felt that the sculptures did not align with the character of the community. These sculptures included: Wheel Journey – Mark Chatterly Iron Man – Tim Burke TO: A TTN : J USTIN BREYER CITY OF DEXTER 8140 M AIN STREET DEXTER , MI 48130 JANUARY 31, 2017 Dear Committee, Herein this document please find the Statement for the proposed artwork areas for the Dexter, Michigan Bicycle and automotive sculptures. The sculpture I have included was specially designed for this show and is called Timeless. The work is about investigating coordinate space geometry and natural and synthetic issues. It is about pushing the abilites of hand creat - ed pieces versus machine created pieces and there are also issues of the cycles of life which is an extended series of mine. The piece is called Timeless because the wheel has poles coming out from the central bicycle wheel and ends in little finial type wheels that go around so the piece is always transferring energy from the center outward and around and back in again thereby crerating a sort of timeless energy that is also related to bikes and cars. I have finished working on the Metropark Railway Station in Iselin, New Jersey for New Jersey Transit. This station is a very large hub on the East Coast with trains that are not only local, but also going to Washington, New York and Boston. It has alot of traffic and alot of design and safety issues, which I met with my proposals for laminated The future design, including my work is very contemporary, but also historical in nature and I did something similar in try - ing to incorporate a large variety of imagery, utilizing imagery from the surrounding areas, having a very contemporary feel to it, while looking back at the past as well to be able to see the roots of the area to be designed.I am also currently working on a large - 6 foot by 70 foot semi-circular granite wall that will have a drawing of a timescape history of the Bridgewater, New Jersey area etched by machine into it. Both of these jobs are exterior, with all the considerations that go with that in nature. I have tried to create designs that are at once beautiful, aesthetic, exhilarating, functional, safe, and unique. I hope that you will find them to be so. I look forward to hearing from you soon and hope that my responses meet with your approval. Very

Shaping the future. 1 From the Executive Director’s Desk Dear Friends, Here at Centre Foundation, we are truly “Building for the Future” and 2013 was a year that embodied that vision. We welcomed growth and transformation in our staff, our funds, our board, and our community! In December, I was honored to be named Executive Director upon the retirement of Al Jones. Earlier, we welcomed a new staff member, Irene Miller, in August. Jodi Pringle ended her very successful two- year term as board chair and has passed the gavel on to Amos Goodall. To see a complete list of our current staff – including Carrie Ryan, our new Deputy Director that joined us in March of 2014 – and Molly Kunkel board members, please see page 31.

This cannot be achieved by seeking to discover identical values in every civilization, but rather by pointing out the significant values of each culture within its own context. This demands considerable honesty, as shortcomings have to be admitted in the same way as achievements are proclaimed.” —Romila Thapar in Asoka and the Decline of the Mauryas Frontiers are indeed the razor's edge on which hang suspended the modern issues of war or peace, of life or death to nations. —Lord Curzon of Kedleston, Viceroy of India (1898-1905) and British Foreign Secretary 1919-24 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS PREFACE i I.

In 1997, René Friedman was given an opportunity to expand Florida Atlantic University’s Lifelong Learning Society (LLS) to the John D. MacArthur Campus in Jupiter, Florida. René knew that a non- profit lifelong learning program could thrive in Jupiter and would grow over years to support itself and be successful. Since its inception, the Lifelong Learning Society (LLS) has had several homes, starting at the NorthCorp building in Palm Beach Gardens. A preview showcase was presented in the spring of 1997 to 125 students. By the end of 1998, the new Lifelong Learning Society had grown to more than 426 members. As the program grew, classes were offered in a movie theater in Abacoa, churches, synagogues, and community centers. Finally in 1999, FAU opened the doors of the Jupiter campus and LLS was one of the founding academic units to first occupy space on the grounds. By the end of the year, the program had grown to 1,290. Shortly after the opening of the Jupiter Campus, René led staff and members in a building campaign that took four years.
