Project Overview

The mosaic seating will be inspired by natural elements and protection of our local watershed as a reflection of community input and Clayworks’ core values of artist-centeredness, excellence, inclusivity, integrity, and joy. The installation will be a distinct feature of the “Sacred Place” that BCW is currently developing in partnership with Nature Sacred. A “Sacred Place” is an outdoor space that is created to reduce stress, improve health, and strengthen the communities in which they are established. We will also use this space as an opportunity to recognize the indigenous people of this area

Project Visioning Statement

We imagine a space that ignites curiosity, sparks conversation, and joins people, nature, and clay, from their ancestral roots to their hopeful future. It will be a place for grounding and reflection, an accessible and joyful garden in which all people in our community can feel they belong.
