Art Blocks  Project

Emmanuel Ortiz and I were 2016 Pillsbury Theatre Art Blocks Artists. We hosted an afternoon of art-making to foster community along the 31st and Elliot block. We had a poetry reading by local poets and neighbors made their own screen print poster featuring a Powderhorn poem by Roy McBride.

Art Blocks is a program of Pillsbury House. Art Blocks convenes, trains, and supports over 30 community based artists or artist teams to organize their immediate neighbors. The artists engage their neighbors first in creating art on the blocks where they live, and then in events and performances occurring in the four neighborhoods surrounding the Pillsbury House and Theatre.
