This installation was a development of “Flag it Up Portland”, an art competition commissioned by Activate, which encouraged local residents to craft “thank you flags”, dedicated to the things, people and places that they were most grateful for in these strange times. The responses were universally relatable; in tough times, people turned to their pets, nature, crafting and family and friends.
Access:
The gardens where The Light House is, is quite small and can feel crowded at times. There is space to wait outside to go in when it is quieter. The ground will be a little uneven and there is limited seating in the gardens.
