Committee outlines Creek Parkway refresh with tribal partners, new signage by artist Jane Kim

A committee member said several temporary installations on the Creek Parkway — basketry, signage and a seed‑chair intended for pollinator education — have fallen into disrepair and are being updated through a multi‑partner effort.

The Arts Council funded new design work and artist Jane Kim produced digital images for cohesive signage. The Sierra Foothill Conservancy contributed materials for new baskets, and the county’s planning crew is expected to perform the physical repairs and potentially move installations to Phase 2 of the Creek Parkway. The committee said the seed‑chair and seed‑sharing element will be managed by the tribe’s pollinator project to provide both stewardship and educational programming.

On the condition of the installations one member said, “They were not meant to stick around as long as they have stuck around,” describing why the refresh is necessary. Members asked for diagrams and for planning staff to provide an update to ensure coordination across partners.
