The funds will be awarded to the City as a grant through the Ohio Facilities Construction Commission (OFCC). At the September 26, 2022 Council meeting, staff was directed to proceed with the Project and enter into a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Muirfield Association (Association) and Dublin Arts Council (DAC) to memorialize the terms and conditions approved by City Council. A copy of the executed MOU is attached for reference. At the August 14, 2023 meeting, City Council approved the project site, which will be located on the northeast parcel at the intersection of Muirfield Drive and Whittingham Drive (PID 60034307034000). In accordance with the Art in Public Places (AiPP) process, the DAC then distributed a national call for artists for the Project in October 2023. After receiving 122 applications, the artist selection committee selected three finalists who publically presented their proposals at the Dublin Community Recreation Center on June 13, 2024. At the June 17, 2024 City Council meeting, Dr. David Guion, Executive Director of the DAC presented the selection of artist Ivan Depefia to complete the upcoming art installation. Per the Art in Public Places Master Plan, once a site is approved and an Artist selected, City of Dublin staff shall work directly with that Artist and any necessary contractors to contract the work, and shall manage the contract to meet artwork creation deadlines as stipulated in the contract, prepare the site and oversee the installation of the artwork. A copy of the proposed contract with the Artist is attached. For the Project, Depefia drew inspiration from movement and flight. “S/WING” embodies the dynamic motion of a golf swing inspired in part by Jack Nicklaus’ signature swing, intertwined with the movement of a bird’s wings in flight. The piece will be approximately 12-15 feet high and 12-15 feet wide. Made from cast stone with the incorporation of artificial moss or turf, the Project will weigh approximately 250,000 pounds and be assembled on-site using a crane. A rendering of the art piece and a location map are also included for reference. As noted at the September 26, 2022 Council meeting, the City is responsible for funding the full $175,000 toward this project and then seeking reimbursement from the State at the Project’s Memo re, Resolution 56-24 — Authorizing the City Manager to Enter into a Contract with Artist Ivan Depefia for the Design, Construction, and Installation of “S/WING” Located at the Northeast Parcel of Muirfield Drive and Whittingham Drive Date: October 29, 2024 Page 2 of 2 completion. $175,000 from the Hotel/Motel Tax fund was included in the Q3 supplemental appropriation (Ordinance 36-24). The Muirfield Association will donate a portion of the designated parcel, up to and including the entire parcel, to the City at no cost per the MOU. The value of the donated site will be applied to the OFCC grant match requirement of $87,500. The Association will also grant any necessary easements to the City and will continue its current landscape responsibilities of the site. The City will maintain the art piece itself as it will be included in the City’s inventory of commissioned artwork. The donation of the parcel will be presented to City Council by Ordinance at a future meeting following the execution of the contract with the artist. The Project is planned to be completed by spring 2026, before the Memorial Tournament.

AGENCY CITY OF DUBLIN, OHIO By: Date: Megan D. O'Callaghan City Manager Date: Matt Earman Director of Parks & Recreation Approved as to Form: By: Date: Phil Hartmann, Assistant Law Director ARTIST By: Date: Ivan Depefia CERTIFICATION OF FUNDS I hereby certify that the funds required to meet the City’s obligation, payment, or expenditure under this Agreement have been lawfully appropriated or authorized for such purpose and are free from any obligation now outstanding. Director of Finance Date 20 Exhibit 1 Description of Artwork Overview of Public Art Concept Muirfield Drive Public Project 3D illustrative rendering by depefiastudio S/WING (working title) The included images in Exhibit 1 are intended to be approximations of a proposal concept. The proposal will be developed in full during the Design Development / Refined Design phase. The initial proposal may evolve due to unforeseen circumstances during the Design Development phase undertaken by the “Artist”. Any changes will be reviewed and approved by designated review body for the City of Dublin, Ohio. Situated on a knoll adjacent to the esteemed Muirfield Village Golf Club—founded by the legendary golfer Jack Nicklaus—the following public art proposal seeks to embody the dynamic motion of a golf swing inspired in part by Nicklaus’ signature swing, intertwined with the movement of a bird’s wings in flight. The design integrates green elements, echoing the 21 landscape's that characterize the area and its history. Historically, this region was a tapestry of farming fields, tended by Irish settlers who, much like the indigenous peoples before them, fostered a deep connection with the land and its natural resources. The sculpture serves as a contemporary homage to these early interactions with the environment, reflecting a continuum of respect and stewardship that is deeply woven into the local heritage. The project seeks to respectfully reflect the relationship indigenous peoples with birds were/are often referred to as messengers between the worlds and as vital components of the natural ecosystem. This respect for avian species resonates with the Celtic lore of the Irish migrants, whose myths often featured birds as ethereal guides and protectors, linking them spiritually to the land they farmed. The comparison of the forms of motion is a nod to flight and an intentional combination of past and present. 3D illustrative rendering by depefiastudio Today, this sculpture stands not only as a celebration of these rich cultural tapestries but also aligns with the Dublin Public Arts Program's commitment to fostering a vibrant community identity. For residents of Muirfield and the broader Dublin area, it offers a place of reflection and inspiration, drawing connections across time— from the historical and spiritual, to the communal and current recreational use of the land. 22 3D illustrative rendering by depefiastudio 3D illustrative rendering by depefiastudio Exhibit 2 Artwork Preliminary Budget Permitting Structural Engineering Materials - GFRC, High Density Foam, Formed Green wall casting, Structural Steel Concrete Footings Fabrication and CNC Milling Costs Shipping Labor / Subcontractors Equipment Rental and Installation Electrical Engineering Lighting Travel, Accommodations, Local Transport, and Per Diem Insurance and legal services Photo and video documentation Art / Design and Admin/Project Management Fee (15%) Contingency (5%) Total Proposed $175,000.00 $3,000.00 $3,500.00 $28,000.00 $6,000.00 $51,500.00 $6,500.00 $9,000.00 $12,000.00 $1,500.00 $5,000.00 $9,500.00 $2,500.00 $2,000.00 $26,250.00 $8,750.00 24 Exhibit 3 Payment and Completion Schedules and Waiver of Claims Muirfield Drive Public Art Project Payment Schedule The Agency shall pay the Artist a fixed fee of $175,000 which shall constitute full and complete compensation for all the services performed and materials furnished by the Artist under this Agreement.

IN WITNESS HEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and official seal. Notary Public My Commission Expires: 29 Exhibit 6 Reproduction Rights 1. License. For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged, Ivan Depefia (the “Artist”), hereby grants to the City of Dublin, Ohio and its successors and assigns (the “City”), and other parties duly authorized by the City, a royalty-free, non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable license to engage in the following activities related to the works entitled “S/WING” (collectively, the “Work”): (a) to publicly display the Work; and (b) to use the Work for all standard community educational, public relations, tourism, and arts promotional purposes including, but not limited to, lending the Work, reproducing or preparing photographs, videos, or other two-dimensional reproductions of the Work, and displaying, distributing, and transmitting such reproductions to the general public. Such reproductions and transmissions may include, but are not limited to, magazines, books, newspapers, journals, brochures, pamphlets, exhibition catalogs, films, video, slides, negatives, prints and electronic media, DVD, CD, computerized retrieval systems, and by all means or methods now known or hereafter invented. Images of the Work used by the City shall be accompanied by text that states the title of the Work, “S/WING” and the Artist’s name, “Ivan Depefia”. 25 Artist’s Rights. Unless otherwise provided, the Artist shall retain ownership of the rights granted under Section 106 of the Copyright Act of 1976, 17 U.S.C. § 106. In view of the intention that the Work is to be unique, the Artist shall not make any additional two or three-dimensional reproductions of the Work, nor shall the Artist grant permission to others to do so, except as provided herein or with the prior written permission of the City. Notwithstanding the exclusivity of the license granted in Paragraph 1 hereof, the Artist shall be permitted to create two- dimensional copies of the Work and to use such copies in a non-commercial manner for the exclusive purpose of promoting the Artist’s role as the creator of the Work as part of the Artist’s portfolio. In the context of such use, the Artist shall include a credit that reads substantially as follows: “S/WING", an original work created by Ivan Depefia commissioned for the City of Dublin, Ohio.” In no event shall the Artist engage in any activity that tends to disparage the City or that negatively impacts the value of the Work. 3. The Visual Artist Rights Act (VARA) of 1990 was established as federal law to recognize the unique characteristic of art works as distinct from works-for-hire, and specifically to protect the rights of artists working in the public realm. Adherence to this law remains an important underpinning of the very notion of public art. VARA was created to give artists the right to be credited as the author and to prevent destruction or alteration of their work. The Artist making site-specific and site-determined artwork recognizes that public sites sometimes change uses and that the protection of a work is different than that in a museum setting. At the same time, the artist’s reputation is based on that work and its integrity. The City must notify the artist whenever the work is to be altered, relocated, or removed. Such notice must be provided in writing at least 120 days before the alteration, relocation, or removal. This is in the 30 City’s interest, as the Artist may find a more creative solution for re-integration, give instructions for storage, or find another buyer. If the piece is to be removed permanently, the Artist should be given the first right to regain ownership, remove the artwork, or disclaim authorship. In the event of damage, alteration, or destruction of an Artwork that is not remedied to Artist’s satisfaction, or relocation without Artist’s approval, if the Artist believes the Artwork no longer represents his/her work, the Artist should have the right to remove his/her name from the Artwork. If the notice provisions related to modification, alteration, or removal provided herein are met, the Artist agrees to waive his rights under VARA. Additionally, the Artist’s VARA rights and analogous rights arising under federal, state, or foreign laws shall cease with the Artist's death and do not extend to the Artist’s heirs, successors, or assigns. 4, Copyright Registration and Enforcement. The Artist will retain all rights and obligations related to the enforcement of the copyright in the Work. The Artist must receive prior written approval from the City before making any claim or demand related to copyright in the Work, and must promptly notify the City in writing of any claim or demand asserted against the Work. The Artist will consult with the City on a cooperative basis in any enforcement or defensive action involving copyright in the Work, however, all costs related to the enforcement or defense of claims involving copyright in the Work shall be borne exclusively by the Artist unless otherwise agreed in writing. 5. Warranties. The Artist represents and warrants that: (a) the Work is solely the result of the artistic effort of the Artist; (b) except as otherwise disclosed in writing by the Artist to the City, the Work is unique and original and does not infringe upon any intellectual property rights of any person or entity; (c) the Work, or duplicate thereof, has not been sold or accepted for sale elsewhere; (d) the Artist has not granted any license, permission, or assignment of rights related to the Work to any other person or entity; and (e) the Work is free and clear of any liens from any source whatever. The Artist covenants to indemnify and hold harmless the City against any charges, damages, costs, attorney's fees, judgments, or losses of any nature which arise as a result of the Artist’s breach of the warranties set forth in this Section. 6. Future Transfer. The Artist has separately transferred to the City title in and to the Work. The Artist recognizes and agrees: (a) that the City may further donate, transfer, or otherwise convey the Work and title thereto; (b) that the Artist’s licenses, obligations, waivers, and warranties with respect to the Work shall be ongoing regardless of any future conveyance of the Work; and (c) that any subsequent owner of the Work will hold and enjoy the same rights in and to the Work as granted herein to the City. 31 ARTIST Ivan Depefia STATE OF Date: COUNTY OF On this. day of 2024, before me, a Notary Public in and for said county and state, personally appeared Ivan Depefia (“Artist”), who executed the foregoing assignment and who acknowledged that such signing is the free act and deed of Artist.
