Shadows with No Capital: Is This Home?



“Shadows with No Capital: Is This Home?” will be a nighttime public art event held to conclude the Twin Cities’ visit of two luminous, travelling puppet explorers from across the world! Art work created by a group of Pillsbury House youth during a three-month collaboration with Minneapolis Arts on Wheels (MAW) will welcome them to the Powderhorn and Central neighborhoods.


This event will begin at the Pillsbury House with a community barbeque. This will be the start point of a giant puppet procession to the projection site-where the youth’s creative art work about their community and their ideas of “home” will be shared. The art work will integrate shadow puppetry, poetry, and stop motion video. All community members are invited to participate!


This FREE community art event will be held on Sat. May 8th, 2010 rain or shine.
