Artist Michael Schwartz invites you to join Collective Imprints, a "consensus-based participatory visual art project that celebrates the life and history of the Rotunda cultural arts center in West Philadelphia." The project will adorn two 20’x 5 ‘ balcony walls inside the Rotunda. Specific content of the mural are decided exclusively by the participants. “Part of what makes this project so innovative is the use of movement arts, music and writing as a means of collectively designing a work of art. We are fusing together popular education and community arts to empower and engage participants in a critical process of storytelling,” says Schwartz. Free community workshops happen every Tuesday from 6-8pm through January 22, 2008, at the Rotunda, 4014 Walnut Street. The project's features the testimony of participants, descriptions of workshops and a discussion about the content of the work of art.
