This summer Lansing Art Gallery & Education Center will partner with the City of Lansing's Parks and Recreation Department to provide a public art display in 10 sites featured along our historic Lansing River Trail.
This temporary, site-specific public art project will connect 3.5 miles of public art sites throughout the city while creating a “buzz” and enhancing the River Trail as a cultural attraction.
A free public kick-off event for the project will include site-specific tours via bike, bus and/or car, and volunteers from the community will provide curated tours of all the sites.
Neighbors of the ten sites will be engaged as volunteer site ambassadors who will learn and share the stories of the Michigan artists featured.
In order to raise money for the project, the gallery is asking for help from the community.
If the gallery meets their goal of raising $7,500 for the “ARTpath" Lansing project they will receive matching funds from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation.
To find out more about the project, you can visit the Lansing Art Gallery's website or watch the ARTpath project video.
Donations are being accepted online or you can mail/drop off your donation in person at the Lansing Art Gallery & Education Center.
