 Artwork in the Center: Inheritance    
 Artists: Julia Cole and Leigh Rosser

The project consists of a series of art nodes that connect thematically throughout the space, in a flexible set of relationships. The artists have installed a total of five artworks in the building, including a 150-foot-long responsive, kinetic sculpture (Ripple Effect), a touchable, polished wood topography of the land on which the community center, park, and surrounding neighborhoods are located (Common Ground), and three translucent maps that explore different symbolic ways of representing what community is (Mapping Community: Map of Probability, Map of Possibility, and Map of Being).

The remaining two works are interactive sites, and are intended to provide an exhibition venue for the display of artifacts and videos made by community members. Both of these works, Connection Web and Video Explorers, exist initially as complete artworks containing seed images and text that are potential teaching/exploration tools for visitors to the center.
