JaySquid is a self-taught visual artist from Greensboro, NC who is joining us April 27 to May 6 as our Pop-Up Artist Resident. She will be working in The ArtQuest Studios on an interactive public art piece called “The Box of Dreams"- a freestanding box large enough for people to walk inside, made of cardboard and paper. Participants are invited to anonymously submit their dreams and aspirations in life that will later be used to cover the insides and outsides of the box.

She says about her work: “It doesn’t matter how old you are, if you’ve given up on your dreams or if you’re in the process of obtaining them, I want to show people that your dreams can come to life.”

JaySquid’s installation will be exhibited during First Friday May, 6 from 6:00-9:00PM in the Atrium of The Greensboro Cultural Center.
