(PARCS) Attachment: City of Fresno Printed on 2/5/2024Page 1 of 1 powered by Legistar™ FRESNO FRESCA A PUBIC ART DISPLAY FRESNO FRESCA PURPOSE: To create a public art display that will increase tourism to Fresno, to encourage residents of Fresno to explore parts of the City unfamiliar to them. Areas including downtown and city parks Other venues Chuckchanski Ball Park, Eaton Plaza and the Fresno Exhibit Hall Fresno Fresca OVERVIEW: In 1999, the City of Chicago commissioned 300 life-sized white fiberglass cows to be decorated and placed along Michigan Avenue, the heart of its business district. They then asked professional artists to submit ideas for decorating the bovines. Over 1500 artists using various mediums answered the call. That summer Chicago’s most prestigious avenue was invaded by cows of all designs. The exhibit featured an array of cows including plaid cows, floral cows and cows painted polka dots. The cows became so popular that the demand to see more of them increased. Cows started to appear in other areas of the district, including shopping malls and lobbies of office buildings and parks. The exhibit brought corporate and local business sponsorship. That summer the city of Chicago attracted an additional 200 million visitors. Chicago became the destination. Cows on Parade Fashion Icon Cows on Parade Blending in with the landscape Cows on Parade Sponsorship Cows on Parade Cow promoting healthy eating Cows on Parade Michigan Avenue, Chicago Austin Texas Public Art Display Fresno Fresca Overview (cont’d) Following the success Chicago’s “Cows on Parade” other cities like New York and Austin, Texas sponsored similar, some using symbols known to their particular region. In 2019 the City of Chicago brought back some of the cows for a 20th anniversary celebration. Although the number of figures was reduced it did not lessen the enthusiasm of those wanting the cows again. GOAL: The propose of this proposal is to create a public art display in the City of Fresno patterned after Chicago’s “Cows of Parade” exhibit. Fresno’s exhibit, Fresno Fresca would feature icons to demonstrate how Fresnans beat the heat. •Popsicles •Sno-cones •Ice cream cones •Iced tea •Lemonade •Fruit drinks These models would be fabricated of similar material and left white like the cows used in the Chicago exhibit in order to create a blank canvass for the artists to interpret their designs. FRESNO FRESCA  ARTISTS Professional artists would be invited to submit their art design ideas. A panel of judges consisting of artists, members of faculty from art departments such as Fresno State and Fresno City College. Once selected, the artists would be paid a stipend of $1,000 plus an additional $500.00 for materials. Corporations and local businesses could sponsor a figure as was the case in Chicago. As bonus, the artists would be allowed to sell replicas of their work, i.e. figurines, prints, jewelry, etc. Display Opportunities to display this exhibit in Fresno is unlimited. A grove of popsicles could line Fulton Street. The models could be displayed in front of City Hall, in Court House Park and Eton Plaza near the Water Tower. as example. Venues such as City Hall, Chuchanski Park, the Fresno Exhibit Hall, Eton Plaza and various city parks around Fresno could be displayed. Models could also be displayed at the entrance to various parks throughout the city. These models would encourage residents to explore areas of town that they may not normally visit. FRESNO FRESCA ACTIVITY: Although the high temperatures help the San Joaquin Valley grow some of the best produce in the world, its citizens may not be so happy to see the approaching summer months. The exhibit would begin at the beginning of the summer months from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Fresno could host an annual festival to kick off the beginning of the “Fresno Fresca” in which vendors who sell these products. Vendors who primarily sell cold refreshments would be spotlighted, with food vendors complementing the festival. Fresno and the San Joaquin Valley is known for its agriculture, growing anything from stone fruit, grapes and almonds and other nut products. A partnership with these industries would serve to reinforce the San Joaquin Valley’s prominence as the one of the world’s top food producers. The exhibit would help residents poke a little fun at one of its less loved features. FRESNO FRESCA MILESTONES: The City of Chicago benefited in a number of ways from the 1999, “Cows on Parade” exhibit. Tourism increased by 200 million adding significantly to the revenue of the city. After the exhibit Chicago’s plan was to auction off the cows with proceeds going to various charities. Their expectations were to garner approximately $300,000. The auction netted $3.2 million for charities. (It’s said that Oprah Winfrey purchased one of the cows.) In conclusion, a public art display that is unique to the San Joaquin Valley, would promote the agricultural and dairy industry, increase tourist traffic thus, adding to the City’s revenue. Business could see and increase in patronage, even creating events the surround the exhibit. Residents of Fresno and surrounding would be encourage to take advantage of the numerous parks and the benefits that they have to offer. FRESNO FRESCA Estimated Cost: The cost of tools that would be used for this project are approximate based on estimates received in 2021. Fifty, 6ft models ……………..$7,000.00 $350,000 Stipends for Artists …………..$1,500.00 $75,000 Materials to promote the exhibit include outdoor banners (36”x 72”)… $20,000.00 Festival costs including permits, security, would vary depending on venue. Total: $445,000.00 City of Fresno Staff Report 2600 Fresno Street Fresno, CA 93721 www.fresno.gov File #:ID 22-278 Agenda Date:2/7/2022 Agenda #: REPORT TO THE PARKS, RECREATION, AND ARTS COMMISSION SUBJECT Hearing - Actions Pertaining to FY23 Budget Recommendations: 1.Review the Parks, Recreation and Art Commission’s park prioritization strategy that will inform the FY23 budget recommendations to City Council.

New Park Prioritization RECREATION-BASED STRATEGY FRESNO MEASURE P IMPLEMENTATION Introducing a Recreation-based Strategy The recreation-based strategy is considered in addition to the park prioritization. Where park prioritization focused on specific parks, here we focus on amenity improvements that can be made in many parks across the system. Themes are generated by the PRAC and community survey. These themes will inform staff as they develop amenity improvement projects. These may apply to the Capital Improvement Plan and be revisited annually.

FRESNO MEASURE P IMPLEMENTATION Thematic Improvements to Parks Basic Comfort and Usability Inclusion and Accessibility Trails and Safe Access to Parks Climate Resilience: Heat Climate Resilience: Drought Welcoming and Safe Parks FRESNO MEASURE P IMPLEMENTATION Identifying Thematic Improvements to Parks Theme: Climate Resilience -Heat Climate change will create hotter conditions. Parks, pools, and recreation centers can help protect our community by offering shade, services, and cooling close to home. Examples of potential improvement projects could include: •Tree planting for shade •Shade structures over picnic areas and playgrounds •Pool renovations &Splash pads •Drinking fountain / Bottle fillers •Cooling centers at existing facilities FRESNO MEASURE P IMPLEMENTATION Identifying Thematic Improvements to Parks Theme: Climate Resilience -Drought Climate change will increase drought. Park planting should become more water-wise. Water delivery systems should become more efficient. Examples of potential improvement projects could include: •Drought tolerant tree planting for shade •Lawn reduction through turf conversion •Climate appropriate planting •Irrigation system renovations and modernization •Water-wise fixture replacement FRESNO MEASURE P IMPLEMENTATION Identifying Thematic Improvements to Parks Theme: Welcoming and Safe Parks Parks should appear welcoming to all at the entry and perimeter and contribute positively to the surrounding neighborhood. Examples of potential improvement projects include: •Entry beautification •Park signage/branding/rules •Perimeter beautification •Painting buildings, adding murals •Safety lighting FRESNO MEASURE P IMPLEMENTATION Identifying Thematic Improvements to Parks Theme: Basic Comfort and Usability Parks should be equipped with functional amenities that can be enjoyed by users. Examples of potential improvement projects include: •Restroom upgrades and maintenance •Furnishing upgrades such as benches, picnic tables,trash cans •Field renovations •Playground renovations •Other amenity repair and replacement FRESNO MEASURE P IMPLEMENTATION Identifying Thematic Improvements to Parks Theme: Inclusion and Accessibility Parks are inclusive to all users and improvements are coordinated with the City’s ADA transition plan. Examples of potential improvement projects could include: •Accessible routes •Building ADA upgrades •Inclusive/all-abilities play features •Program support for health and wellness •Multigeneration park amenities i.e. pickleball FRESNO MEASURE P IMPLEMENTATION Identifying Thematic Improvements to Parks Theme: Trails and Safe Access to Parks Parks should be safely accessed from surrounding neighborhoods by all ages. Trails are integral to a park system and can provide access to both urban parks and natural areas. Examples of potential improvement projects include: •Sidewalk and safe street crossing enhancements at parks •Facilities for bikes in parks •New trail development •Improvements to existing trails FRESNO MEASURE P IMPLEMENTATION Commission may recommend to Council that park improvements address these thematic priorities. These themes will inform staff as they develop amenity improvement projects.These may apply to the CIP and be revisited annually.
