Carry On Homes @ the Commons (425 Portland Ave S, Minneapolis, MN 55415) signup sheet

Carry On Homes at The Commons is a multi-functional pavilion hosting the stories of immigrants in Minnesota, where individuals come together to explore the concept of home through community gatherings, workshops, live performances and personal reflection. Home is a universal idea that transcends divisions by race, religion, gender identity, and class. Help us at The Commons park in downtown Minneapolis through volunteering at four different events, as we celebrate the immigrant cultures from around the world that have come to call Minnesota home.

Conceived by five artists from five countries: Peng Wu, Shunjie Yong, Aki Shibata, Preston Drum, Zoe Cinel (www.carryonhomes.com), this interactive sculptural installation reimagines the home as an open structure. Walls disappear, while invitations to engage appear in the multiple forms of a stage, a colorful mural, a reflecting garden, a photo gallery and a sculpture built from repurposed suitcases. This experience is free and open to everyone, everyday, beginning June 15, 2018 and lasting throughout the summer.

This project was made possible by the City of Minneapolis’ Arts, Culture and the Creative Economy program in association with Northern Lights.MN and The Commons.
