City Council · 2026-06-23 · agenda_item

The City of Jacksonville is considering an ordinance to allocate funds for a local art show. This event is planned to feature art created by city employees or their family members. The proposed funding totals $3,950, with $3,450 designated for awards and $500 for a reception honoring the award recipients. This item is currently pending and has been introduced, with a public hearing scheduled for July 28, 2026. The project would involve planning and executing a local art show, including the distribution of awards and hosting a reception. This could create opportunities for event planning services, catering for the reception, printing services for awards or promotional materials, and potentially other support services related to organizing a public event. Engaging early could provide an advantage before specific vendors or service providers are selected.
