The Philomath City Council is accepting applications through the end of this month for five volunteer positions on its newly formed Public Art Committee.
The committee will advise city officials on public art matters throughout the community. While all interested Philomath residents are encouraged to apply, the city will prioritize candidates with professional art experience for up to two positions, particularly those with backgrounds in public art procurement, creation, installation or maintenance.
Applications are due by 5 p.m. on Sept. 30. Interested residents can apply online at philomathoregon.gov (scroll down to find the online application form). For more information, visit City Recorder Crystal Weber at City Hall (980 Applegate St.) or call 541-929-6148, option 5.
The City Council plans to conduct interviews and make appointments during its Oct. 13 meeting.
