These "Boundary Benches" were created as a community art project at the Boundary Block Party in April 2008. The Boundary Block Party is an anual event to bring the Upton, Sandtown, Madison Park and Bolton Hill neighborhoods together to celebrate and share their unique cultures. The bench planks made at the block party are a visual representation of that dialogue. People designed cards in response to the question, “What do you want for your community?”. The decorated cards were arranged on planks of wood to make new art benches. Boundary benches are in the Contee-Parago Park at Bolton and Dolphin Streets, Bruce Street Park around Fulton and Laurens Streets and Henry H Garnett Park at Druid Hill and Lafayette. |
