Linda Hesh: Reimagine Civic

Published: December 5, 2017

Put the “i” into Civic

On exhibit at Central Library, December 2017 – January 2018, and at the Columbia Pike Branch Library, February – May 2018

You are invited to stand in the space of the missing “i” in the C_vic sculpture to Put the i into Civic.

“Do your best to make sure your net impact on the world around you is positive”

Artist Linda Hesh’s project asks you to consider what Civic means to you. What do you expect from your government? What do you appreciate? Civic Expectations or Treasures? What might be your contribution, your Civic Duty or Civic Pleasure?

Photographed portraits, along with the participant’s opinion about what Civic means to them, will become part of www.reimaginecivic.com by posting with #reimaginecivic, or by going to the website to upload images directly.

Reimagine Civic is a public art initiative aimed at sparking public conversation about the future Courthouse Square by exploring the interaction between civic space and civic life in Arlington in the twenty-first century. It is sponsored by Arlington Public Art.
