Menlo Park Public Art is asking for your participation!
Monumental Love: Love Birds
As we have been socially distanced, confined, and isolated, we feel the need to spread something in Menlo Park: love. Starting in front of Art Ventures Gallery with the first public art installation of two sculptures by artist James Hill: "Love Birds" and "Woman", we are aiming to spread the one thing we can't confine, the one thing we need to express and cherish since the beginning of life until the end of our time: love.
The installation will feature the two sculptures and a love bird table to be reserved in advance for your special lunch, happy hour, or evening via Camper Restaurant.
Every restaurant and cafe in Menlo Park will be asked to present and appreciate their love bird table. Please send an email to
[email protected]
with an image of your love bird table!
Marriages have been postponed, relations have been broken, let's start with love - for everybody in Menlo Park.
