Community Pillars presents: One by One
What is this? A public art program to illustrate the power of one. Create anything of your choosing on
a 1’x1’ square. Squares will be collected and displayed in several public art displays in Bay County to
illustrate the power of One.
How do I get a square? Pick up a square at CityArts during open hours any Wednesday to Sunday
from 1 to 6 or during Community Pillars on Thursday evenings from 6 to 8.*
What can I use to do my square? Use any media. Illustrate the theme or do your own thing. Collages,
assemblages, and 3D applications are acceptable as long as they do not make the square bigger than
1’ and do not protrude more than 2 inches on the front. You can attach photographs, watercolor paper,
drawing paper, fabric, and canvas to your square or do your art right on the wood.
What do I do when my square is done? Return your completed square to CityArts within 30 days.*
Then what? Your completed square is donated to the Community Pillars program and will be displayed
with other One by One squares in public art displays at select venues in Bay County. Squares will be
available for purchase. All funds collected- from donations, purchase of squares, or auction proceeds-
are donated to Community Pillars Program.
Who runs this? One by One is organized by Community Pillars, an outreach art program of
Chautauqua Learn & Serve Charter School at CityArts. Community Pillars is funded by the Best
Neighborhood Grant and the New Freedom Grant.
What if I need help completing my square? You can work on your square any Thursday at Artists in
Action- CityArts’ free day for everyone to use our space and materials, or you can come to Community
Pillars any Tuesday or Thursday evening. Several art workshops will be scheduled at CityArts and other
venues for those wanting formal art instruction. There is a fee to attend the workshops, all materials are
provided. Workshops are $25 person, 2.5 hours. At the workshop, you will complete 2 squares: 1 to
keep and 1 to donate. Workshop dates TBA or contact Heather Parker to schedule one for your group.
The Fine Print: Subject matter should be suitable for public display. ‘One by One’ reserves the right
to selectively choose the display venues for completed squares. Photos of you and your art may be
used by ‘One by One’ for publicity purposes.
*Delivery and pick up arrangements can be made. Contact Chautauqua at CityArts 850-769-0608.
