The conversation will define the idea of "placemaking" as public art and architecture define a space, giving it more value and significance. Through images of public works created by Kris Kollasch, as well as other well-known public art pieces and places, you may leave the lecture with a broader awareness of the impacts of art in the world around you. There will be the opportunity to see and touch mosaic panels up close and ask questions about the process of creating art to last in even the harshest climates.
It will be a lively and colorful presentation, in the crisp air conditioning, on a hot summer's day. And hopefully you will leave, saying, "Wow, that was cool!"
