“When I first heard about The Temporary Museum of Permanent Change, I knew I wanted my piece to not only interact with the public aesthetically, but also in a physical sense. I wanted it to be touched, thought about, manipulated, and revisited in a respectful way. And so, my piece is basically a modern interactive quilt – it is interactive in the sense that it has pockets so that passersby can insert notes, photos, tickets, basically things from the city and their community. I think it will be neat to see what gets put in the pockets over time. I imagine this piece becoming a mini-time capsule – an opportunity for people in the community to express themselves and to interact with the art, sharing what it is that they do with their hands everyday.” – Angela Flicker

Celebration of the Hand was started by The Temporary Museum of Permanent Change and Craft Lake City in the Summer of 2012 as a way to highlight and showcase the work of local artisans participating in the Craft Lake City DIY Festival. The Celebration of the Hand pieces are installed into steel Plakats, which are adjacent to the sidewalks on the North and South sides of Broadway (300 South) between 200 West and 200 East.
The exhibit is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week and is free to the public.
