                     Renting commercial space for an art activation space where classes, studio space, and exhibition could happen, potentially in collaboration with an area University arts program.

                     Positioning a raised, permanent plinth for rotating artworks in an area that could be established as a plaza and focal point for artwork.

                     Possible use of existing kiosks on Miracle Mile for new media artworks in partnership with an area high school arts program.

                     Installing a permanent media screen for rotating artworks in a paseo between Garage 1 (and forthcoming Mobility Hub) and Miracle Mile in partnership with private building owner(s).
