The city of Hermiston wants the public to weigh in on draft recommendations for public art locations.

People can provide input during the Eastern Oregon Arts Festival. An artist’s reception is from 6 to 8 p.m. May 6, and the festival will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. May 7. Both events are on Northeast Second Street, in front of Hermiston City Hall.

Rebecca Couch, a consultant, has prepared a public art plan for the community, including identifying potential public art sites, suggested types of art and public art development policies.
