The Nest project seeks to heal some of April 27th's wounds with art and beauty. Creative Campus worked with the community over the past few months to collect tornado debris and build a larger-than-life nest sculpture to be displayed as a symbol of warmth, recovery, and rejuvenation after the storm. Creative Campus also worked with Tuscaloosa schools to have local students paint small sticks that will be worked into the sculpture upon its completion and unveiling. Thus, it will literally and symbolically weave together the pieces of the fractured, scattered Tuscaloosa community.
On February 25th, Creative Campus will host a painting event at Rosedale Park from 1 to 3pm. We will unveil the sculpture, display the students' art, have some live music, and invite the community to come and add their own brightly-painted stick to the sculpture.
