THE GIVING TREE

An art installation with purpose. The Giving Tree is here to Help you cultivate your relationship with Giving and Taking. Giving Tree is 10 feet tall, and is installed with the Waking Garden, taking up an area around 30-50 square feet. It is weatherproof, so it can be installed outdoors or inside, and it uses electricity for lights and rotating the mirror ball. The tree functions on the honor system, hoping that you give~~~ and then you can take something. Starting with its shelves filled with pieces of art, crystals, feathers, and other trinkets, it functions almost as an unending, unmanned 24-hour public trading post creating infinite possibilities for sharing and discovery within the community. Making it's debut at the 2013 Electric Forest Music Festival in their Sherwood Forest, it was always surrounded by people giving and taking. Just to give you and idea of how it could function at your event, please look at our photo gallery and watch the video below of Nahko, from Medicine for the People interacting with and talking about The Giving Tree at Electric Forest 2013!!!!
