History of Huntington Beach 41. People uniting neutral topics as well as expressing HB residents are part of our world community, southern California wildlife icons and HB lifestyle 42. Really, all of the above 43. Beach vibe 44. Beach related 45. Definitely not "environmental justice"- that gets too political. Art should bring s together not divide. 46. Faith based art 47. Sports- Such as Surfing, Kite Boarding, Paddleboarding, kite Surfing, Canoeing, Kayaking, Sailing, Foshing water sports, city sports. Activities the city provides 48. Environmental Beauty 49. Any limitation on themes (speech content) would violate the First Amendment. 50. Diversity 51. Embracing cultural diversity and acceptance, environmental health and awareness 52. All are good! 53. Only time it should be public is on store windows for holidays or seasons. I don't like it out on buildings, trash bins or anything else. It never looks nice but trashy. 54. Ocean/Surf Theme 55. NONE -just stop!!!! 56. 1 wouldn't say "social justice,"but maybe "inclusivity." More than just white people. 57. environmental preservation awareness 58. Light hearted 59. Surf City 60. Ocean, beach, surfing, American Patriotism 61. Beach themes 62. Ocean, beach 63. Community 64. Art In general rather than limit it. 65. None 66. our futuristic goals 67. Art should never be restricted to themes. We should support free artistic expression. If there was one large, iconic public art piece to be installed somewhere in Huntington Beach, where would you like to see that legendary attraction?

Walkways Along the beach anclTrash bins along the beach strand 7. Along the beach but not in a congested area. I like how they put the surfer statue in front of parking lots by Beach & PCH. One work of art there. Maybe go to another beach parking lot and dress up that one! And then the next parking lot .... 8. 1 believe re-installing the old, historic archway that used to be over Main Street/PCH would be super cool. Also, perhaps use the downtown library at night for small performing arts theatre? 9. we dont have enough art at our beautiful large parks. 10. HBAC more shows for unknown and local artists 11. repair infrastructure 12. The Bluffs, but close to the pier. 13. a light project in downtown would be wonderful. 14. All of the above! 15. On the beach 16. nowhere 17. Bolsa Chica wetlands 18. The old senior center 19. A HUGE WOVE IN SCULPTURE 20. It is hard to choose...depends on the work 21. Lake Park or Shipley to Sea Trail or579 Food Court 22. Off of Main & PCH 23. Bottom of the ocean. If its metal, at the local scrap metal recycling yard 24. See next question 25. Somewhere near Main and PCH/Pier Plaza. 26. or on the beach somewhere 27. Nowhere. I'd prefer we don't add any art to our city. It seems to me it's someones personal preference and is being pushed on the public. 28. The Art Gallery on Main ST 29. Near downtown, not near the beach. Draw some of you crowd toward other HB areas/businesses 30. Golden Mst College 31. Peter Green Park 32. Area that is not so crowded. That way visitors can explore different parts of the city. 33. Loved the arch that used to be at beginning of pier. 34. HB Central Park V1kst/Urban Forest- bridge 35. Bella Terra mall 36. Given your example of Cloud Gate, we have nothing to discuss. 37. beach front that isn't exactly downtown 38. If it's ugly, like the bean, hide it in central park. If it's lovely and inspiring, put it downtown :) 39. Cliffs and pch 40. Maybe have a new park or an existing park that has a sculpture garden. 41. 1 think triangle park library could use a mural. 42. Before the pier by the stairs 43. NO!!!! 44. PCH 45. It would depend on what the art was. Generally my vote would be The Pier area, Downtown, Triangle Park, Central Park in that order. 46. Somewhere Alongside PCH 47. 5th & PCH 48. None - spend funds elsewhere 49. smaller neighborhood parks that engage actual HB residents. 50. Pier Plaza 51. Don't we have that with the naked surfer? 52. Civic Center 53. Along the beach 54. The Naked Surfer at the entrance of the Pier and PCH. 55. PCH Bluffs. 56.

NO more! 69. Somewhere on Beach Blvd as it approaches the beach. I think a lot of people access HB that way, and its still pretty open to the sky. 70. NONE--I think our local art is already there-- the ocean. That's what attracts people to HB. Don't ruin it by trying to compete with nature. And the grammar is "if there WERE", it's a subjunctive tense reflecting possibility. 71. Park along PCH and loth 72. Never 73, City hall if at all 74. plaza, but depends what it is, of course 75.
