CAC WORKING COMMITTEES UP AND RUNNING
Each of the seven members of Coronado’s new Cultural Arts Commission has agreed to chair a “working committee,” aimed at involving the greater Coronado community in promoting and appreciating various aspects of the arts in our city. After a public application process, the following committees will meet informally and are open to interested individuals and groups willing to serve a minimum three-year term.
PUBLIC ART: Contact Jeff Tyler, Chair. [email protected]. (619) 435-5333. This is the art that belongs to all of us! A kickoff meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, March 27, 8:30-9:30 AM at the Coronado Public Library (home of some of Coronado’s most significant public art) in the Winn Room.
ARTS EDUCATION: Contact Kris McKlung, Chair. [email protected] (619) 435-4271. Actor, teacher, director, founder of our acclaimed CoSA. Kris’s committee will bring together Coronado’s wide variety of arts education programs in one glorious spirit of collaboration.
