Dailey It is very exciting to be a part of the creative and synergistic energy that is generated when working as part of a team! Background: I have been creating Public Art since 1977 when I was hired and trained in mosaic technique by Denver artist, Darrell Anderson, to assist in the coordination and creation of a public art project on the Wright Life Building in old town, Fort Collins. This was my first public art project outside of a school setting. Over the years I have both collaborated with and been on the teams of many artists, and have worked with many committees. In 2008, I had the unique opportunity to work with nationally known Philadelphia "monumental' mural artist Meg Saligman, for 5 months, on 22,000 sq ft. mural in Omaha, Nebraska. This Spring I had the opportunity to work with, John Provensky, Director of the Colorado Coalition for the .Homeless and with Jil Rosentrater, Director of the CO State AIPP program on two Public art projects (first two slides). The Artist Team: For the Art in Action project, we propose a team of three Artists, Amy Brackenbury, Juli Schrader and myself The three of us have worked together in the past, and we love the energy and excitement of collaborating together. All three of us are friendly and outgoing and enjoy discussing our art and creative process with others (we have all taught art). Having three team members would allow maximum scheduling flexibility. To meet the 25 hours a week quota we would work individually and together (especially on weekends or on high traffic days)... We would post (around old town) a weekly schedule so the public would know who and when the artists would be working. This schedule could also be published weekly so people could plan ahead. The Artwork: The art piece (or pieces) we propose could possibly be in three (or more) parts and our three distinct styles would combine to create a unified whole. The media we propose for of our work is a combination of, painting, mosaic and possibly clay low relief sculptural pieces, all with outdoor coatings to withstand the elements. The size and nature of the work would of course be determined once the sites are determined, and with the input of the City project team. We have themes in mind to use as a starting point in discussion. Community Outreach Component: Since two of us are performing musicians, and all three of us are teachers, we would like to submit for consideration, a performance/community outreach aspect to our proposal that could possibly involve the intermittent services of a writer, support musicians, teachers and students. As part of our art in action residency, we would like to sponsor short events that occur occasionally during busy times, to not only help draw attention to the art -in -action program, but to other aspects of arts and culture in our community as well. We have also been in contact with a representative from the Fort Collins food bank to brainstorm ideas for inclusion in the community collaborative aspect of our "performance/art outreach series"... Short performances or events (20 minutes to '/z hour in length), might occur only occasionally, on busy days when all of the artists are present; perhaps every other week end or during busy times. We look forward to hearing the input of the city project team on our ideas. We are very excited about the Art in Action project and feel that as a three person artist team we bring strong ideas and experience to this exciting concept. We appreciate your consideration .... Thank you Sincerely, Susan K.

I went to CSU where I majored in art and minored in music, moved to Cherokee Park where I have been a professional artist and musician for 35 years. I have worked with Susan Dailey and juli Schrader on several big mural projects and found that we work very well together with similar vision and views about what it takes to create large, very impressive pieces. I have taught art at Moca and through the Poudre School District Adult Learning Program and I enjoy that so much because I love people! This project would be a blast because I'd get to combine that teaching/socializing aspect with the creation of art. Life doesn't get better than that! 1'd really like to see a music theme in this art piece that would be a tribute to all the amazing musicians that reside here. Susan is a professional musician also and we could put together a couple of spontaneous jams through the summer for special occasions. Art and music go hand -in -hand and what a wonderful way to engage the people in Old Town Fort Collins! 970-221-1123 www.amybrackenbury.com Sincerely, V/ t larson@webaccess.net - Juli Schrader 3602 North County Road 27E Bellvue CO. 80512 May 11, 2009 Dear Art in Action Committee, The Art in Action project sounds wonderful! To have the chance to interact with the public is very appealing to me. I have been creating or teaching art most of my life. It has been my pleasure to work on several public art pieces with friend, Susan Dailey, since 2001. In 2007, we collaborated on a mural in Longmont CO, "Along The River" at Rogers Grove Park. I have also worked with artists, Eleanor Yates and Amy Brackenbury on two separate murals. One mural was in the alzheimer's wing at Blue Grouse Health Care. I've taught art at the Community Learning Center in Fort Collins, Stepping Stones a private school in Loveland and at the Museum Of Contemporary Art. I have taught both adult and children with whom I shared my love and knowledge of art. My most resent accomplishment is receiving best of show at the "Spirit Of The West Art Show" in Cheyenne WY with my "9 Points Of Light" sculpture. The Philinda Gallery currently represents me in Edwards CO and the Link Gallery in Cheyenne WY. Two years ago, HGTV came through town and I was one of the artists selected to star in the show "That's Clever'. It aired on March 30, 2009 and I demonstrated the creation of one of my sculptures. Thank you for your consideration on being a part of the Fort Collins Art in Public Places. Sincerely, 970-482-6347 jschrader63@hotmail.com
