held in Common. Guest Artist: Angela Sanders.
held in Common is a participatory artwork that invites passersby to pause and leave a single word on a piece of second-hand cloth in response to the prompt: “What would you like this space to feel like or hold?” The collected fabric fragments will later be hand-sewn into a larger textile work and offered to the City of Palo Alto.
Public Benefit: Pop-Ups in the POPOS is a citywide series of playful, site-specific pop-up activations by artist Lisa Van Dusen, unfolding across Palo Alto’s POPOS - Privately Owned Public Open Spaces. The project brings underused public benefit spaces to life through temporary, participatory encounters, from tours and performances to creative experiments and moments of surprise.
This is funded by the ArtLift Grant Program, Palo Alto Public Art Program.
