Situated on the facade of the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts, “I want more celebrations” was created during the Boston Public Art Triennial as part of a workshop with East Boston youth. The work points to "I want a president, " 1992—shown on this same facade in 2018—in which a typed letter reads “I want a dyke for president” and continues on to describe a political candidate who has suffered illness, poverty, and loss.
In a workshop co-facilitated with Paola Ruiz, youth participants at Maverick Landing Community Services in East Boston relayed the need for joy, safety, affordable food, and friendship. Their perspectives pair with an invitation for the public to fill in their own hopes and desires.
