Exhibit A Description of Work Artist Jack Storms shall create a bell- shaped glass crystal sculpture based on a design previously approved by the Civic Arts Commission, to include a hanging/mechanically rotating structure (see attached drawing). Artist will transport the Work to the Firehouse Arts Center and install it on site, and will attach it to the granite pedestal provided by the City. Scope of Services Jack Storms and Studio 7 Fine Arts shall: 1 Fabricate the sculpture. 2 Inspect sculpture for quality. 3 Coordinate final installation schedule with City Staff and General Contractor. 4 Transport the sculpture and the hanging structure to the Firehouse Arts Center. 5 Install the stand and the sculpture. Location The Work shall be installed in the Firehouse Arts Center lobby, adjacent to the window directly north of the Railroad Avenue entrance. Materials and Fabrication Methods The sculpture shall consist of leaded crystal and dichroic glass. The stand shall be fabricated of metal finished in color consistent with the materials used in the building (specifically window framing) so as to coordinate aesthetically. The stand will be engineered to manage the weight of the sculpture and will have a motor enclosed in the supporting structure which will rotate the bell mechanically. The approximate dimensions of the glass bell sculpture will be 20" wide at the bottom, 10" wide at the top and 24" tall, and the dimensions of the supporting structure will be approximately 3' wide and 5' tall. The pedestal, to be provided by the City, will be approximately 3' square and 1' tall. Supplemental Materials The artist shall supply a manual for the City's public art collection management program which includes materials specifications and describes routine maintenance needs, recommendations for care, and other considerations for upkeep of the bell sculpture and supporting metal framework.
