Free and open to the public!

We’re excited that the first phase of Nick Cave’s project Augment is underway in Upham’s Corner! Join us with our partners at the Design Studio for Intervention and a team of dedicated local artists for a collage workshop exploring joy, togetherness, and community on May 11 at 11:30am at Pilgrim Church in Upham’s Corner. The resident-made collages will be incorporated into a custom-made building wrap, that will be hung on street banners and on displayed in storefront windows in the neighborhood later this year. Through these workshops we are merging art and community to support ongoing dialogue on the value of public space and the benefit of creative placemaking and public art installation. By bringing the neighborhood into the creative process of Augment in a hands-on way, we hope to weave the values, identities, and voices of the neighborhood into the artwork from the get-go.
