KISS
project
The KISS project was designed to develop community
awareness through art and increase the awareness of
art throughout the community.
Ten professional artists were chosen from the Kingston
region by KISS facilitators Iand Hodkinson and Julie
Fiala. From May to November 2003 the artists collaborated
with various community groups to produce multidisciplinary
expressions that emphasized the diversity of communities
in Kingston and their relationship to the fabric of
the city.
The project concluded with an exhibition, presentations
and a discussion forum.
