Processional Walkway
Processional Walkway is an intervention that makes use of 50,000 red rose petals to create sacred walkways along 14th Street. The walkways transform the grey pavement into ceremonial passageways that offer purification for the day ahead and elevate the simple ritual of walking down the street to an event worthy of celebration. With this project, Urban hopes to inspire an appreciation for the routine actions that define our lives.
Monday, October 3, 8-10am and Saturday, October 8, 12-3pm
Monday the walkway will be located at 14th Street and Sixth Avenue. Saturday the walkway will be located at 14th Street and Tenth Avenue.
