The Town of Yucca Valley has been offered a donation of art for public display. A photo of the art is available for review at the Yucca Valley Town Hall, the Hi-Desert Nature Museum, the Town’s Community Development office or the Yucca Valley Community Center. Placement location for displaying the sculpture will be determined at a later date upon review by the Public Art Advisory Committee and the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Commission.

 
The seven-member PAAC has reviewed the merits of the proposed art donation from artist Simi Dabah and forwarded a recommendation to the Parks, Recreation and Cultural Commission (PRCC).

The welded steel sculpture is 20 feet tall and 20 feet wide. It weighs approximately 2400 pounds.

The Town of Yucca Valley’s public arts policy requires a 30-day public review period during which residents may register comments for or against accepting the donation. The offer, committee and commission recommendations, and summary of public comments are scheduled to be forwarded to the Town Council in April 2010 for formal action on the offer.
