Join us for an enlightening discussion at the AIA NJ Spring Design Night event, where Nina Cooke John will delve into her public art practice. Her work aims to foster a profound sense of belonging in public spaces, recognizing their significance as vital hubs for connection, community building, and civic engagement. Through captivating anecdotes and reflections on her recent projects, including the groundbreaking ‘Shadow of A Face’ Harriet Tubman Monument in Newark, New Jersey, and the thought-provoking installation piece ‘Two Boxes of Oranges and Admonia Jackson’ in Old Town, Alexandria, VA, Nina will share insights into how her art re-centers and resurrects often marginalized narratives within the fabric of a place and its people. Join us as Nina illuminates the transformative power of public art in promoting inclusivity and social change.
