Museum of Discovery and Science Nature Center Loan
Two Guy Harvey murals are planned for the Nature Center, and the installation budget needs a modest bump of $785.20 to $4,985.00, plus lift or crane rental costs. A small add-on to a high-profile public art project.
Special Events Funding and Signature Events Strategy
The CRA is considering a $20,000 grant to help fund the Cove Music Festival, which would cover costs like security and cleanup.
S-Curve Public Art and Branding Initiative
Artist Xavier Cortada pitched a $228,000 public art project featuring sea star sculptures, murals, and interactive QR codes to brand the S-Curve corridor. Board members loved the educational and visual appeal, though funding will need to be sorted out for a future budget cycle.
