Fragments: What Connects Us to a Sense of Place?

Taught by Resident Artist: Jana?na Vieira Marques

Tuesdays & Thursdays from June 14 through July 28 // 2?5 PM // FREE

Open to high school students only (including incoming freshmen)

In this summer arts and leadership program, over 20 high school students will work to create a site-specific installation in a downtown public space to engage the community during the high tourist season. This opportunity will connect youth voices to their community by addressing the question: What connects us to a sense of place? Throughout this design process, teens will explore memory, identity, and place when developing the concept for their large-scale photographs that will be attached to a downtown site using wheat-paste. The installation will be interactive with the community and is intended to be naturally biodegradable. Please note that this program meets twice per week! Two-month commitment required?no drop-ins.
