About the event
Artists leading the Sky Sail project:

Mel Williams
Sky Sail will be a collaborative sculpture constructed with community indigo-dyed fabric pieces. The “sail”, nodding to Starr Kempf’s sky reaching wing forms, will be suspended between the ceiling and floor, creating a walkthrough space. People will also be invited to sit on floor cushions to view the work from below.

We’re also accepting donations of denim to be included in the sculpture.
