And thanks, also, to those who came to participate. We had beautiful weather to engage with population/water issues through water play: counting, carrying, pouring, dividing, spraying, painting, and wishing.

Here are a few photos from two of the activities.

The event was held in conjunction with the exhibition, Fruitful and Multiplying, curated by John Schuerman, and selected documentation of the Aqua per Capita event will be included in the exhibition's next venue at Minneapolis Central Library June 7-July 31.

We'll also be adding more documentation of the event at this website and sharing plans about exploring future versions of this pilot project.
