Judith, who oversees the Art on Loan program, said the commission selected six artists each year and that this year's jury includes two outside judges who have accepted invitations. The program's deadline is Feb. 28; Judith said she had received one small submission and planned outreach through the city newsletter and neighborhood channels to increase entries. \"We have a great page called Explore the Arts in Ivins,\" she said, encouraging residents to sign up for the city newsletter.

Commissioners said the Ivins Arts Corridor project is awaiting the outcome of a grant application expected by the end of April. Commissioners discussed a potential pilot project using street art to increase visibility at a crosswalk with limited sight lines, additional utility-box wraps and outreach to homeowners associations to sponsor local pieces.

The commission also reported that a community garden run through parks and recreation sold out plots \"within like two hours,\" according to a commissioner who relayed information from staff; the garden team has asked the Arts Commission to find or sponsor a decorative sign. The commission noted a volunteer has offered design help and that a local resident is considering donating a small plot to expand capacity.

Finally, the commission welcomed volunteers offering website and technology help. Rebecca Gaster, who described prior technology work for arts organizations, has already begun reviewing the commission's online forms and suggested using JotForm; other volunteers offered to assist uploading minutes and agendas to the city site.

Commissioners said they will present the commission's annual report to the Ivins City Council on Jan. 16 and will continue outreach and fundraising for the corridor and other projects this year.

The recommendation follows presentations by nonprofit representatives and discussion among commissioners about past festival attendance, capital needs and the commission's own project pipeline. Commission members made the recommendation by motion and vocal vote; the commission chair said she will present the recommendation to the Ivins City Council on Jan. 16.

Commissioners said the funds would help two local nonprofit arts organizations sustain festivals and programs that draw visitors and support local artists. The commission reported RAP collections of $215,034.19 for the current period and said a $5,000 set-aside is reserved in a bond-and-trust account; after those deductions the commission said $45,011.40 remained available for regranting this cycle.

At the meeting, representatives described how last year's festivals had been affected by the departure of a long-standing contractor who had managed artist contacts and event administration. \"A long term contractor had been running all of our festivals ... he resigned from his position but also took all of the data and contacts with him and was not willing to share that information with us,\" said Miranda, a commission staff member who reviewed applicant reports. She said the organizations moved administration in-house and that attendance looked \"more sparse\" even though overall numbers were not drastically lower.

Kayenta Arts Foundation and Tuacon told the commission they are using new application platforms and regional marketing funds to rebuild artist rosters and attract visitors. \"We changed to the Zap application process for Art in Kayenta ... that application portal is managed by Creative West and contains a database of thousands of artists across the western region,\" Miranda said. She also said the organizations had qualified for separate Utah tourism marketing funds to help attract out-of-state visitors.

Commissioners pressed applicants on specific needs. Tuacon described a capital request to add restrooms at the Entrada venue. The applicant said the building's facilities were designed for a high-school population and now serve rehearsals, classes and performances with short intermissions. The Tuacon representative described the full project cost as about $147,000 and said the organization was requesting a \"small portion\" from this RAP cycle for plumbing and fixture work.

After discussion about community arts priorities and the commission's limited discretionary pool, a commissioner moved that the commission recommend awarding $17,000 each to Tuacon and the Kayenta Arts Foundation, with the remainder retained in the Ivins Arts Commission reserve. The motion was seconded and carried by voice vote. The commission chair said she will present the recommendation to the Ivins City Council on Jan. 16 for final approval.

What the commission decided not to do tonight: the funding recommendation is advisory. The council will vote next week; commissioners said they wanted the council to hear the full discussion and applicant presentations before a final appropriation.
