Floraffiti® Bringing Words to Life and Life to Words


By Carter Hubbard

Floraffiti, a placemaking and community engagement project, began in Chapel Hill 7 years ago and has grown to include Carrboro. To celebrate its 7th and final year in these two fair towns, Floraffiti collaborates with Anoo Tree Brod and her students of Wild Mind Improv using words that have been planted throughout the years as a stepping off point for a fun, family friendly hour of improv inviting audience participation. The performances take place during the 2nd Friday ArtWalk on Friday, May 10, 7-8pm at The PIT-Chapel Hill, 462 W Franklin St . Tickets for the show are $6 for children and $10 for adults and can be purchased at The PIT-Chapel Hill’s website.

For more info on this community engaged public art project, check out the website at Floraffiti.com, and follow on Facebook, Insta, and Twitter for updates.

Founder of Floraffiti®, Carter Hubbard, has had 25+ years experience in creating large scaled installations, curating exhibitions, place making and community engagement, coordinating and implementing events, and participating in artist residencies. She lives in Portland, OR with deep roots in the SE, spreading Floraffiti all over the US cultivating healthy community connections through visually stimulating, thought provoking, and interactively engaging arts events.
