Civic Park Public Community Meeting
The City of Edmonds Arts Commission is set to hold a public community meeting on December 16, 2021, at 6:00 PM via Zoom, focusing on the Civic Park public art project. This meeting will introduce Clark Wiegman, the chosen artist tasked with creating a permanent art installation in Civic Park. Participants will gain insights into Wiegman's artistic background and the concepts he is currently developing for the park's design. The meeting serves as a platform for community engagement, allowing attendees to voice their questions and comments after Wiegman's brief presentation. This early interaction is crucial as the project evolves, ensuring that local perspectives are considered in the final design.
The Arts Commission plans to present the completed design to both the Edmonds Arts Commission and City Council for approval in the spring. The initiative underscores the city's dedication to enhancing public spaces through community-driven art projects. By involving residents in the design process, Edmonds aims to cultivate a vibrant and inclusive community atmosphere.
