With the assistance of artist/architect Aaron Squadroni, Grand Rapids Arts will create a series of lightweight, moveable panels/walls that can serve as mobile outdoor canvases for public art. Completion of the project and use by at least two area artists will be the measurable outcomes. The plan will be evaluated by the public's responses to the art gathered by Grand Rapids Arts volunteers during First Friday art walks and other downtown events utilizing the space. Artists who create work in the space will be surveyed for their feedback on working in the space and with the temporary wall systems.
