WPA model

Awoke this morning with possible approach to project.  

Similar to previous projects where we've involved numerous volunteers, I'd like to utilize a sort of WPA/job training approach for Homeless Place of Remembrance.  

Through the design of a purposely labor-intensive and necessarily collaborative project, such as mosaic, there's the opportunity to help build community through common purpose while making our match for Department of Neighborhoods Large Matching Grant.  Other possibilities include design of components used to demarcate individuals, 'rolling workshop' used to plant markers, mosaic work, finish work, planting & plant maintenance, etc.  All of this could be part of a 'streets-to-greens' training program that helps bring folks from a place of homeless destitution to a community of cultural workers.
