FOUND Exhibit — April 20, 2024
The FOUND project was centered around bringing people together in an artistic experience that benefits and celebrates the community’s shared spaces. Finding new ways of looking at items the people discard and encouraging stewardship of their neighborhoods, cities, and world was intrinsic in the workshops and culminated in two exhibitions in 2024. This first event, the dedication ceremony, included guest speakers Aaron Myers, Executive Director, DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities; Kerry Kennedy, Public Art Coordinator, DCCAH; Ellyn Weiss, artist and activist; and Jason Gerson, Eckington Civic Association and was hosted by Ira Tattelman, FOUND founder.
