Hi Elayna,

Check out the http://pomegranatecenter.org/ in Seattle. All their projects are community designed and built. 
I ran a community arts program in National City, CA and we were trained by them. We completed around 10 community designed & built projects on which I'd be happy to share information. Email me and I can send info & photos. Tile-making or glazing have been the most successful but, we had artists guide community members in creating sculptures, building artistic retaining walls, funky fences, and painting murals.

For landscape work check out http://rootedinplace.com/ we partnered with them frequently. Specifically, the Paradise Creek Gathering place project may be relevant to your work.

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!
