CITY HALL DEDICATION, MAY 2000

In 1997, the Public Art Committee selected Carolyn Law to work with the architects to involve artists at the early stages of designing the new Bainbridge Island City Hall. During this collaboration, two primary artists were brought into the process, Erin Shie Palmer and Gayle Bard, to produce major interior and exterior artworks.

Artist Constance Miller coordinated the project during the construction process, and assisted with the relationships with the City and Community. In 1998, five additional artists were selected to produce a combination of functional and decorative artworks to complete the Committee's vision of a City Hall that would truly reflect the Island community. The building was dedicated in May, 2000.

"Our goal is to have the inclusion of artists thinking in the design process and the artworks in the final design to produce a building that identifies and acknowledges the unique character of the Island and its community."

- Artist Consultant, Carolyn Law
