Volunteer Art Ambassadors
Volunteer Art Ambassadors are needed to support an Art in Public Places special project: River Crossing by British artist, Joshua Sofaer ( https://www.joshuasofaer.com/about/ ) The project will invite individuals to nominate someone to be commemorated by having the public dock in Sacramento or West Sacramento named after them. The nomination period is from May 25 to July 10, 2019. Volunteers will help spread the word about the project and encourage residents from both cities to make nominations.
