This is an outdoor event. Hot chocolate and coffee will be available for free.
WHERE: In the parking lot next to YWCA St. Paul (375 Selby Avenue, St. Paul). You can also watch the unveiling virtually on Facebook Live on our page: www.facebook.com/YWCAStPaul.
ABOUT THE ARTWORK: The city of St. Paul and Mayor Melvin Carter partnered with Springboard for the Arts to commission this piece which celebrates the work of the city’s People’s Prosperity Pilot, a guaranteed income pilot program launched last year. Dr. Nicole Milligan and the Milligan Studio created the featured sculpture ‘Altitude,’ a joyous celebration crafted with glass, metal, and sound. It was inspired by the dreams of children and a tight-rope walker’s parasol. ‘Altitude’ will be hung from the second-floor window of YWCA St. Paul for the community to enjoy.
