Confluence Project - 1 views

  •  
    "Confluence Project is a collaborative effort of Pacific Northwest tribes, renowned artist Maya Lin, civic groups from Washington and Oregon and other artists, architects and landscape designers. The project stretches more than 300 miles from where the Columbia River flows into the Pacific Ocean, to Clarkston, WA, with sites in both Oregon and Washington. Each of its seven sites features an art installation by Ms. Lin that interprets the area's ecology and history, encouraging the visitor to reflect on how the surroundings have changed over time. Each references a passage from the Lewis and Clark journals."

    One of my friends goes to this every year and I look forward to seeing the pictures afterwards. It's definitely a very unique cultural and artistic experience. She said that because a lot of the same people go every year, the event has developed its own little community.

    My chemistry teacher in high school goes to burning man every single year. One class period he dedicated the entire hour and a half class on telling us about burning man and showing us his pictures.

    I would love to one day experience Burning Man! I have heard nothing but great things about other people's experiences about the music, art, and community it brings together.
