100 Tiny Things

Connecting the constellation of the Charlotte International Arts Festival, 100 Tiny Things is one part surprise, one part scavenger hunt for everyone walking through uptown between the Blumenthal’s two largest theaters: the Belk and the Knight. If they are making their way to the festival, or even if they’re commuting to work, 100 Tiny Things are playful, curious, and delightfully disruptive installations that are a joy to stumble upon and encourage the public to explore the larger footprint of CIAF, as well as begin to see their city in through new eyes.

Artists, please consider your submission to 100 Tiny Things as an opportunity for creative urban repair, a way to manipulate the mundane, and to interpret serious architecture with a personified flair. From googly eyes to mini-murals, to small sculptures, we are inviting public awareness with a giggle. Your tiny things will encourage people to slow down, enjoy where they are, and learn to explore through play.
