Title: Our Time To Shine
Artists: Artists from The Arc of Atlantic County

Artists who are attending art classes at The Arc of Atlantic County's Adult Training Center in Egg Harbor Township created this chair. Each artist contributed images to the chair that represented things in their lives that made them feel happy or proud. Some drew on paper first and transferred those designs to paint, while others painted their creations directly onto the chair. As a result, the chair shows many self-portraits and other faces, in addition to imaginative seascapes, colorful flowers, and cartoon characters. Many artists expressed a desire to sit in the chair upon installation and were very proud to contribute to this year’s 48 Blocks AC.

👋🏻  Hi, I'm Loryn! I'm a freelance graphic designer who is passionate about making the world a more beautiful, accessible, & welcoming place for us all. I believe good, honest design can transform your brand - and I absolutely love being part of that transformation. When I'm not working you'll find me on a yoga mat, listening to WNYC, testing out a new recipe, or working on my latest DIY endeavor. People would likely describe me as curious, kind, a bit stubborn, creative, and hard-working. (And I LOVE emojis! 😂 )
