<br /> Hillsborough Sculpture Tour 2015, and will be a spectacular work of art which will bring notice
<br /> and tourists to Hillsborough, enhance our town's appearance and reputation, and involve the
<br /> community in the exciting experience of helping build the sculpture. Prior to designing and
<br /> building the sculpture, Dougherty makes site visits, taking suggestions, listening to concerns,
<br /> selecting the site, and developing sketches for the construction. The Arts Council will work with
<br /> him and the community to develop enthusiasm for the project and teams to participate in the
<br /> construction. The sculpture will be appropriate for Hillsborough, as it will be made of local
<br /> saplings, and designed to enhance its site. Dougherty's sculptures usually last at least two
<br /> years, but are not permanent, so eventually the site will return to its natural state. We had a
<br /> kickoff event at the grand opening of Riverwalk to start fundraising and build enthusiasm and
<br /> support. An educational component for schools is already developed (see attachment#3
<br /> Stickwork for All). A professional photographer will document the installation, and we will have
<br /> an exhibit celebration at completion of the installation. We have received a Tourism Board grant
<br /> of$8,000 so we have solid funding foundation, and we are asking Orange County Arts
<br /> Commission to grant us $1,500 to help us achieve the $23,000 needed to achieve this project.
<br /> Our past Hillsborough Sculpture Tours have attracted over 8,000 viewers. Because the
<br /> Dougherty Stickwork Hillsborough project is expected to be constructed along Hillsborough's
<br /> new Riverwalk, and because it will involve the community in its construction, we expect that
<br /> number to double. Based on area demographics, we estimate viewers and participants to be
<br /> approximately 14%African American, 1% Native American, 75% Caucasian, and 20% Children.
