Congratulations to Mai Ryuno, artist and owner of Play Full Ground at 550 Lighthouse Avenue, Suite E in Monterey, who recently received an Individual Artists Grant from the Arts Council for Monterey County!
For this grant application, Mai proposed a project to explore, experiment, and collaborate for the execution of socially-engaged art by creating meaningful gatherings and a series of dialogues around a future community. The goals are to introduce the art practice outside of object making, empower future generations to build competencies to become creative members of a society, and imagine and create a healthy, vibrant and connected community for all.
Please contact Mai Ryuno if you or someone you know needs help discovering your creativity and utilizing it to make art in everyday life!
