06 Attachment 3 - Letter of JustificationOctober 2, 2020
Dear Mayor Jensen, Vice Mayor Spector, and Council Members Rennie and Sayoc,
Regarding: Request for 45-day “We’re Open” Banner on Civic Center Building
On behalf of the NUMU Board and Staff I would like to thank you for your support during these
unprecedented times. As you may be aware, the impact of the shelter in place initiative has had a
significant impact on the Museum’s operations. For the past 7 months, the museum has been
temporarily closed and suspended all onsite programs and events. Despite these obstacles, we’ve
been working steadily to find NU ways to keep the community inspired and connected. We’ve
managed to do this by offering new virtual content including exhibition tours, virtual artist talks,
curator-led tours and e-newsletters updates. We have been following all County of Santa Clara
guidelines and as of this week, we have re-opened our doors (25% capacity) and are safely
welcoming visitors back into our upper level galleries.
This letter serves to request Town approval for NUMU to hang a “We’re Open” vinyl
banner (design attached) on the exterior wall, above NUMU staff offices windows - same
location that Music in the Park banner is installed.
Kimberly Snyder
Deputy Director
