Organized and designed by First Year Odyssey students enrolled in Associate Professor Lynn Sanders-Bustle‘s Art and Activism class, a living mosaic honoring Linnentown will be installed by students, faculty, staff and passersby from noon-6 p.m. on Monday, October 3 on Memorial Plaza outside the Tate Student Center.
The temporary mosaic, made up of tile, mirror, found objects, and clay pieces created by community members will be collectively placed as a design that honors the vibrancy of the Linnentown Community and, through its deinstallation, its tragic erasure. The group installing the mosaic will be looking for participants to help them place the pieces, so stop by the site for a few minutes or a few hours!
