The City of Shoreline and Performance art group “City Meditation Crew” invites artists and the public to participate in a free community art project exploring the natural landscapes of Shoreline.

“Many Colors of Green: Shoreline” involves a contemplative walk with participants taking mindful photography of flora in several Shoreline locations.

The walk will be led by City Meditation Crew in collaboration with the City of Shoreline’s “Shoreline Walks” program.

Participant photographs will later be used to create large scale banner artworks. This opportunity is perfect for local artists or community members interested in environmental art, performance experimental geography, mindfulness, social practice and all community-based forms of art.
