Our street painting project is called Curiosity Corner in honor of the diverse, intergenerational learning community that exists at the intersection with a college, preschool, elementary school and library. Our hope is to continue strengthening the community between all the different schools, organizations and neighbors in our little corner of St. Johns.
Our hope is that this project will lay the framework for future placemaking projects and collaborations by bringing everybody together and bridging the gaps in our community. We hope that the intersection painting and other placemaking project will become a yearly tradition for our intersection. Plus, we love the idea of organizing and reconnecting joyfully through a communal art project that gets people out and working together.
