Mayor appoints Small as youth representative on arts commission. One position remains open.

Mayor Carrie Lacher is pleased to announce the appointment of Fiona Small to the Friday Harbor Arts Commission (FHAC). Small, a recent graduate of Spring Street International School, was selected to fill the youth representative position on the commission. She brings experience in performing arts, fine arts, photography, and writing.

“This position is an opportunity to introduce the next generation to public service, as well as to inject a youthful perspective into the public art process,” said Mayor Lacher. The youth commissioner serves a one-year term as a contributing but non-voting member of the commission.

The FHAC continues to seek one individual to complete a commission term ending December 31, 2015. This is a voting position. Those with experience, background or involvement with visual, performing, or literary art should provide a Letter of Interest to Mayor Lacher. Applicants may choose to include examples of their art or experience.

Application review will continue until the position is filled. For specifics on the responsibilities of the commission, applicants are advised to review the ordinance and policies posted under “Arts Commission” in the Agenda tab at the Town of Friday Harbor web site: www.fridayharbor.org.

Members of the FHAC represent the interests of the Town, community, and local artists and advise the Town Council on the cultivation, selection, acquisition, and placement of public art.

Questions and application letter should be directed to:

Town of Friday Harbor, ATTN: Julie Greene
60 Second Street / PO Box 219 / Friday Harbor, WA 98250
