10.13.2026 - 2026 City of Oroville Arts Commission

The City of Oroville Arts Commission meeting, identified in the title as October 13, 2026 (the metadata timestamp is October 14), discussed adding individual QR codes to murals. The proposed approach is for city staff to create mural-specific web pages and QR codes, with codes printed on tiles and affixed to mural sites after obtaining building owners’ permission. Commissioners discussed possible tile designs and page content, including artist biographies and mural histories, but no vendor, cost, purchase, or installation authorization was approved and no votes were reported.

Commissioners also discussed whether future arts funding notices (NOFAs) should address the use of generative AI in submitted artwork; they left the issue open for further consideration. A potential 1% art allocation connected to energy projects was mentioned, including a hypothetical $150 million project, but no specific project allocation or spending decision was made. Other discussion covered upcoming local art events and gathering accurate historical information about murals. No procurement award or other spending action was identified.
