A New Ring: Arbor Day Celebration
@ Warren Park
Warren Park Playground NE, 2045 W Pratt Blvd, Chicago, IL 60645
Opening Friday, April 25th, at 6PM
Join us for our third annual Arbor Day celebration with John-Michael Korpal!
We will gather at 6 PM in the northeast corner of Warren Park, near the parking lot at the intersection of Pratt Ave and Ridge Blvd. Once our group is assembled, we will proceed along the pedestrian path clockwise (to the left) at the first branch, like so. Find us on the path if you’re running late!
John-Michael will guide our movement around the park with activities, prompts, and observations. After dark, everyone is invited to an open studio event featuring new artworks that have manifested since last Arbor Day. For further details on this multi-year journey, visit romansusan.org/What-is-a-Tree?
What is a Tree? launched on Arbor Day 2023, and was followed with another guided walk on Arbor Day 2024. Join us for Arbor Day 2025 – and in the coming seasons, we encourage you to experience this project on your own by finding a Mother Tree in the northeast corner of Warren Park, and proceeding along the walking path clockwise (to the left) at the first branch. What is a Tree? prompts you to observe, interact, personify, and engage with the arboreal inhabitants of the park. Below is a growing body of resources to help relate to and learn about trees.
This project is being created as part of Navigations, a series of artist projects in and about public space.
