The NEA ARTS, Number 2, 2018,
“Community ART–
A Look at Public Art in America” features 5 local
communities who are making public art, community
art. Of greatest excitement to us, is the feature on
Palm City’s RIPPLE ecoart project! What amazing
recognition for a project that seeds were planted for
nearly a decade ago and are now taking root!

These two gentlemen already have a close

Pops.
Watch for more news about a November 30
