The placement of this altar in front of the city hall has created a niche for future Sculpture Jam pieces there. It's now time to move the altar to a new site in a hosting landscape.
I don't have room to appropriately display this piece. If you have a location it can be yours!
All you'll have to do to own this piece of Sebastopol history is to move it to your location (or cover the cost to have it moved). Please email me. Your early response will give you priority.
In September of 2001 the Sebastopol Center for the Arts held its fourh annual Sculpture Jam. In this event, an altar, "In Gratitude," was designed by team artists Sara Sunstein and Susandra Spicer, to be a community participation piece. It was created by this team with the help of many volunteers.
