First Coast Register August/September 2015 | Page 42

Jacksonville is one of only 16 cities in the United States involved, and
one of only two cities in the Southeast to participate. In the coming
months, the Cummer Museum hopes to expand the project into
more neighborhoods and involve youth and volunteer groups in
both choosing and installing the images, and the Cummer Museum
is currently looking for additional building owners interested in
becoming involved in the project. To share your images or to see
how others are interacting with this installation, follow the Cummer
Museum on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, and use #JaxOutings
to mark your experiences.
