River Vessel is a
participatory artwork designed to support the River Journey project. It was used in the closing ceremony for River
Journey on June 3, 2015. As was done at
the opening ceremony, Brigham and River’s Edge Academy staff read the River
Journey poem during the school’s circle time, where all students and staff
gather as a community. Then students and
staff were invited to pour some water from the River’s Edge Academy kitchen
sink (sourced from the Mississippi River) into the vessel while answering, “What are you grateful for about the Mississippi River?”
