About a month ago, the Walker Art Center sent me an email asking if the neighborhood (I'm chair of the neighborhood organization) would participate in the "My Yard Our Message" project. The what??? It turns out
the project is a bunch of artist designed "nonpartisan" lawn signs. The neighborhood got 50 different signs to distribute--kind of a distributed art exhibit in the nieghbohood for the RNC happening across the river. This is part of
The UnconventionAll of the signs are "interesting," some are very good lawn signs
Some are less nonpartisan than others.
However, some of the artists did not understand the basic rule for a lawn sign: It has get its message across to someone driving a car at 30 mph.
If you are in the Twin Cities, check out the
Google map of the sign locations. You can buy your own sign at
