Attn: Mayor Ron Morrison, Members of the City Council, City Manager,
Leslie Deese
The Friends of the National City Public Library request your acceptance of our gift
of another innovative glass art piece, to be affixed to the inner side of the small
window in the Young Adult Center. Both the Library Board of Trustees and the
National City Public Art Committee have reviewed and voted to accept this gift.
We are enclosing a picture of the proposed piece, which is inspired by the eternal
search for the Grail. This artwork was designed by the internationally known artist
Jim Hubbell. Mr. Hubbell was also the designer of the beautiful "Firebird" window
which was installed in this same area in October of 2009. This is an opportunity
for National City to be recognized as a community that values art in many forms.
Mr. Hubbell's new colored glass design will be a wonderful addition to our library.
Sincerely,
•
