CITY HALL DEDICATION, MAY 2000
In
1997, the Public Art Committee selected Carolyn Law to work with the
architects to involve artists at the early stages of designing the new
Bainbridge Island City Hall. During this collaboration, two primary
artists were brought into the process, Erin Shie Palmer and Gayle Bard,
to produce major interior and exterior artworks.
Artist
Constance Miller coordinated the project during the construction
process, and assisted with the relationships with the City and
Community. In 1998, five additional artists were selected to produce a
combination of functional and decorative artworks to complete the
Committee's vision of a City Hall that would truly reflect the Island
community. The building was dedicated in May, 2000.
"Our
goal is to have the inclusion of artists thinking in the design process
and the artworks in the final design to produce a building that
identifies and acknowledges the unique character of the Island and its
community."
