Docusign Envelope ID:3828A8FD-E1D8-4216-845E-C747D567D04F <br /> • • I <br /> 2025 Site Agreement <br /> Thank you for your interest in hosting one of sixty works of art to be featured during Uproar Festival of Public Art! The purpose <br /> of Uproar is to help drive visitation into our downtown communities by transforming Orange County into a month-long arts <br /> destination. We appreciate your help in making this possible! <br /> Uproar site FAQ'S <br /> Q:What is the timeline? <br /> A: Uproar kicks off Friday,August 1 and runs through Saturday,August 23. Work will be installed the weeks of July 21 <br /> (Triangle-based artists) and July 28 (out-of-town artists) and uninstalled August 24-27. Our team will coordinate with you <br /> to determine the best installation time based on artists' availability (many are from out of town) and equipment needs,so <br /> we appreciate your flexibility. <br /> Q: Do I have input in what art I'm agreeing to host? <br /> A: The Uproar team has selected work to match the site types based on the specific needs of our art, and the specific <br /> offerings of your site, such as ground surface and open space. It's like putting together a very difficult puzzle, and we ask for <br /> you to trust our team and our Artist Selection Panel.The beauty of art is that it is subjective and not everyone loves the <br /> same thing, but factoring personal taste into this logistics puzzle would make Uproar coordination almost impossible. <br /> Q: How will hosting art benefit my business? <br /> A: Uproar is essentially a big scavenger hunt.Throughout the month, people will seek out the artwork throughout our <br /> communities and vote on their favorite (the People's Choice winner and 1s' Place winner each win $10,000!). As an Uproar <br /> site,you will benefit from foot-traffic as well as inclusion in the Uproar website, printed and online maps,the Uproar voting <br /> platform, and more. <br /> Q:What if something happens to the art? <br /> A: Uproar artists are encouraged to purchase liability insurance for their work in the event of damage or theft.They will be <br /> required to sign a hold harmless agreement releasing you of any liability related to the work. However, as a site, we ask that <br /> you do your best to look after your art during the festival, ensuring that it remains visible, unobstructed, and protected <br /> within your abilities (see more information in the agreement terms below). <br /> Q:Will the art alter my property? <br /> A: All art will be installed by a paid team of professional art handlers. If any alterations to your property are required (such as <br /> anchoring work to concrete, or hanging work from an outside wall of your building), this will be discussed with you in <br /> advance and your site returned to its original space after the festival. We will not alter your property without your <br /> permission. <br />
