McClinton Tapped for Georgia Art Policy Panel
March 15, 2004
Atlanta -- State Representative Jo Ann McClinton (D-Atlanta) has been appointed to the Georgia Art Policy Committee Collections Management Subcommittee by House Speaker Terry Coleman, D-Eastman.
The committee is charged with developing guidelines to provide Georgia citizens with a quality presentation of the state's impressive collection of art in the public areas of the state capitol and the capitol education center.
The panel is further mandated to develop a state capitol art collection that is of historical significance to the State of Georgia and of high artistic quality by focusing on the acquisition, maintenance, preservation, display, and deaccessioning of works of art.
"People visit the Capitol every year from not only Georgia but other states and all over the world," said Rep. McClinton. "It is very important we show them how much we love our state and with the help of experts in this field, we will make sure Georgia's history is properly displayed on the walls of the Capitol and the Education Center."
Under the legislation creating the committee, no works of art shall be acquired or displayed in the public areas of the state capitol or capitol education center without the approval of the Georgia Art Policy Committee's Collection Management Subcommittee.
Rep. McClinton has been a lawmaker since 1992.
