The Redmond Arts Commission makes recommendations to the Mayor and City Council regarding arts-related acquisitions, programs, projects and events. One of their tasks, arts-related acquisitions, recommends the purchase or loan of permanent and temporary art, outdoor art exhibitions and art in the neighborhoods.

But how is this art chosen? What are the guidelines and principles the Arts Commission uses when making its recommendations? The Arts Commission will answer those questions and listen to the community’s ideas about the program.
