Cultural Council Meeting Minutes DATE Page 7 of 8 sharing Facebook events and posts, social shares to spread the word about events. Sharon suggests Instagram. JR mentions LCC has an Instagram account; there are actually two LCC accounts. One account has 81 followers and six posts from 2016. City doesn't have access to that account. Second account has 179 and 36 posts from 2019-2020. Low engagement on posts, most of followers are businesses. Erica recommends against duplication of content on META companies (posting same content to Facebook and to Instagram). She encourages LCC members to "like", share, and interact with the content that exists on Facebook. Beth wants to focus on social media outreach. Erica will continue to create and post full -page flyers, and will continue to bring '/2 page flyers to LCC members to share. She says she can always print more. Erica creates events on Eventbrite, then shares event description and Eventbrite link on the City website calendar and on Facebook. Erica sends emails with events to Arts and Events newsletter subscribers. JR — LCC needs to start booking events. Suggests silent movie, 1 or 2 music events. Sarah moves to allow the Programming committee to begin booking events, Beth clarifies a $500 limit or must come back for full LCC approval. Beth seconds. All in favor. None opposed. 16.Information Item: Summer Concerts in the Park. JR has three opening acts, needs another 2. Openers are paid $100 flat. JR needs one more quote for an audio engineer. Need to book the audio engineer. 17.Information Item: "Community Resilience" sculpture update. City Council approved the sculpture in its current form to be placed outside of City Hall.
