Hey Elayna,
We are working with Daniel McCormick and Mary O’Brien of
Watershed Sculpture on a community engagement project in the Baylands. The artists have been using plant materials and trees limbs harvested from the City to create a temporary foraging island sculpture to attract
wildlife to the site. Their third and final weekend working with community volunteers is this Saturday. Email me and I can provide you with more information and images.
Best,
Elise

Subject: Community Made Public Art
Hi All,
I’m seeking national examples of participatory public art, where Artists leads community in collaboratively making the work, or where the public is involved in creating
a significant aspect or percentage of the overall work. If the projects you know of focus on plants, ecosystems, engage the public environmental conservation learning and/or activism, that’d be great too. I’m working on the “Community-Created Art” section
of an ARTist in the Garden Master Plan for the Mounts Botanical Garden of Palm Beach County, in West Palm Beach, and would love to include, and of course give proper credit to, the artists, and their works.
Thank you!
