About the Event
We'll screen the short documentary Sculpting History: Mr. Imagination's Sanford Memory Wall at Jeanine Taylor Folk Art, followed by an art project inspired by Mr. Imagination.
About the Film
In 2007, artist Mr. Imagination spent three weeks creating a community memory wall installation outside of the Jeanine Taylor Folk Art Gallery in Sanford Florida. Residents brought Mr. Imagination their trinkets and mementos to add to the cement wall where it remains installed to this day.
