My thought was wash on Sunday the 28th and chalk the next weekend (note the 4th
is easter weekend). They shouldn’t get too bad in a week being EV parking, and
Sunday’s are pretty light usage days.

Cool! Can we get Brian's (or PBA's) approval to block off two of those on
select dates? I'm guessing clean one day, block off, come back next day and
do artwork?
Sunday, April 4 is Easter. May not work for me unless we meet to do artwork
in afternoon.

Closest I have to “now” until I walk out there again. Pretty clean, but
might be better if a bucket of soap water scrubbed them ahead of time for any
oil from ICE’ing.

So we can expand our visual thinking space. And I really liked I think
Robert or Brian's thoughts below on the clean energy theme.
We need to nail down a date, but there are a few questions first:
• What is on the concrete right NOW in those four parking spots??
• We will need to clean the spots before blocking them off to chalk them?
• I also haven't heard anyone speak up about having any artistic abilities.
I can come up with a plan and execute it in chalk, but just want to ask
again if we have any artists among us??

Yes, to Will’s point, this is in discussion of the market square garage
spaces. This year it is set up to be “your” walk in suburbia, but since
that doesn’t work for me that’s where I came to the idea of just chalking a
charging space with PBA and the City’s OK.
Registration options are individual, family, and business / organization
with an individual (named) artist.

Robert I am confused, I thought this year due to covid the chalk walk
isn't any specific location, that we can chalk anywhere and just submit a
picture of our work. I saw that we could register as a business or
organization, does that not work for us? I don't think there are any
"spaces" on market square, I could be wrong.

Since there are 4 spaces on market square there could be 4 different
families.
If we have more than just me, we could do separate ones that tell a
bigger story.

Heads up:
Artists may chalk from April 3rd-12th. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic
we have eliminated all group categories. Please register as an
individual artist or a family if you have more than one artist
working on the artwork.
So that said I’ll I’m registering as a family for one space on market
square. Anyone else want to register as a family or individual?

Robert,
Would you be willing to take the lead on trying to sign us up and
see if they still have any slots? I think we can get a few people
to participate in play coloring book on the concrete. 😊 (Plus us
engineers can totally over-engineer it.)

Competition starts April 3rd it looks like. I’d suggest the 4th
as that’s a pretty light traffic day (Sunday).
Anyone have a preference for which garage? Who else would want to
help? At a minimum I’m sure my kids would love to help so I’d say
at least one of the 4 spaces on the 4th at Market square.
Design wise, I’m thinking along the lines of free clean power
thanks to the city of Knoxville and TVA with maybe KEVA, City,
and TVA logos on a smoky mountain purple/orange background
similar to the friends of smokies plates.
To me the message would be two-fold:
First, I still don’t think everyone even parking in the spaces
there has gotten the message that it’s free now - I still
occasionally see unplugged EV’s parking there.
Second, I don’t think that the general public realizes the
strides TVA has made in cleaning up its power portfolio over the
last decade and a half, going from ~60% coal plus 7% gas to ~60%
carbon free. I say that because one of the big discussion points
of anti-EV messaging tends to be “dirty coal powering your clean
EV.”
Of course, not sure if either the city or TVA would be ok with
their logos being on it. Could omit those.

This sounds like a fun idea. The folks in PBA parking would
need a little more detail than what I was able to glean from
the exchange, but I did reach out to make sure they weren't
opposed to the idea.
I'd like to help find a spot for this to happen. Let me know
as y'all narrow down things like: How many stalls, what sort of
design, and times/dates to get in there?

I think Brian is the right answer for starting with permission
and who we need to talk to. Might be PBA ultimately.
Happy to help, it’s right there. I hear I’m decent at such
things but I need ideas as I’m not usually the creative type.

Does anyone want to run with this idea? I don't know what we
would draw? and who's going to help draw?
Robert who do you think we ask?
If we did the ground near a charger in a garage it's going to
last a lot longer!
Any thoughts on this?

We could do it on the ground near an EV charger somewhere
so the pictures we submit have the charger in the picture.

Seems like something on EVs and equity might strike a
common cord. It doesn’t have to be fancy with shadows
but should be colorful and can rep KEVA/DET??
