St. Paul-Minneapolis artists worked with the Center for Hmong Art and Talent and transformed materials found along the construction of the new light-rail Green Line, such as origami and glass jars, into fashion for a performance. This article is cross-posted with permission from Next City.  Imagine a big infrastructure project coming to your main street. Imagine how a streetcar will bring new visitors to your city’s commercial strip, spending money and spreading the word about how cool your neighborhood is. Imagine how that new bus shelter will lure people out of their cars and onto public transit, or how that parklet in what was once a barren median will brighten the day of passersby. Now imagine the months of work it takes to get that project built. The road closures. The traffic. The scaffolding blocking your favorite coffee shop’s facade. A new initiative from a St. Paul-based arts organization can help to make sure those months aren’t miserable — and are in fact pretty enjoyable.
