Explore public sculptures, art projects and murals 29 Pieces has produced in collaboration with students, professional artists and community members.
The American Love Project engaged schools, organizations and artists in the U.S. and beyond in a version of our Love Lesson, generating a positive grassroots response to the January 6, 2021 insurrection at the United States Capitol.
One of 29 Pieces’ primary focuses in 2020 was the design, production and installation of art for public parks located on six Dallas ISD elementary school campuses.
Between 2018 and 2019, 29 Pieces partnered with the South Dallas Cultural Center to produce its second large-scale sculpture, Piece 10: Souls Hidden.
Too many of our finest teachers are leaving the profession, resulting in a void for young people who need adults in their lives who love and care for them. We wanted to do something about this.
In the companion campaign to Dallas Teachers Speak, 29 Pieces led workshops to lift up the voices of Dallas ISD students.
Between 2015 and 2016, a team of mosaic artists and Dallas high school students designed and built Piece 24, a monumental sculpture that stands in front of the Oak Cliff Cultural Center on Jefferson Boulevard in Dallas, Texas.
In 2015, 29 Pieces launched The Dallas Respect Project to use visual art to empower people to go viral with respect and set a positive chain reaction in motion.
Following the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963, Dallas was labeled a “City of Hate.” Fifty years later, the city came together to express itself as a community where love thrives.
The sculptures series, designed by artist and 29 Pieces co-founder Karen Blessen, brings to life the inspired messages and sacred words of spiritual visionaries throughout history.
