You know that gnawing sensation that there is something missing in your life? You need to create more art. Here’s your chance. Artist Kuros Zahedi needs your help with one of his Urban Alchemy projects this Friday afternoon — the work will be added to the Sound Transit-sponsored installations along Broadway.
Litter will be picked up from the streets of Seattle and then transformed into a piece of art. We are looking for people to join the clean up effort THIS FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10th, from 4 – 6 PM (GOOD WEATHER PREDICTED!) The collected trash will then get sorted and utilized to create an artwork which will be displayed on Broadway, in the Capitol Hill neighborhood as part of their STart program.
Hey, you billionaires in the Fancy Pants part of the Hill — Kuros especially wants you!
Part of the conceptual background for this art project is to have people from diverse walks of life working together to do something good. My aim is to be able to collect trash together and side-by-side with poor folks, senators and billionaires! We have all helped create a mess in the world and we can all humbly bend to the ground together in a symbolic gesture of hope.
Fill that void. Make art. Enjoy snacks.
When: FRIDAY, October 10, from 4:00 – 6:00 PM
Where: meet on the corner of Broadway and E. Roy in the Capitol Hill
neighborhood
What: picking up litter – gloves, sacks, and refreshments provided
