On Saturday, September 10, Julie Keefe will bring her Hello Neighbor workshop to the Oregon Nikkei Legacy Center as part of the series of events for the exhibit kip fulbeck: part asian, 100% hapa, originally created for the Japanese American National Museum.

From Julie Keefe: "What happens to neighborhoods when your neighbors aren't your neighbors any more?... My idea was to work with children to seek out neighbors of all ages. I wanted to begin a dialogue about community from their point of view. The resulting artwork would be displayed throughout the childrens' neighborhoods. Mural-sized, black-and-white photographs with text would introduce the neighborhood to its children and neighbors to each other. It all begins with a simple hello."

Free, but pre-registration is required.
