Attend the Stalagmite Creamsicles Opening Reception from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, February 25, 2023, at the McKinley Park Community Garden, 3844 S. Damen Ave., Chicago.

Stalagmite Creamsicles is the latest public land artwork by Chicago artists Latham Zearfoss and Anders Zanichkowsky. It begins Winter 2023 with an installation of large colorful ice sculptures dyed with natural pigments and containing seeds for native plants at the McKinley Park Community Garden.

In Summer 2023 and beyond the garden that blooms from this artwork will attract bees and butterflies, improve the soil and air, and give everyone who passes by a hopeful intervention of indigenous beauty amidst the concrete and asphalt of the neighborhood.
