The other day I was leaving work at Townsquare Media and noticed a bunch of people across the street in downtownRochester at Cafe Steam. They were all masked up but I could tell they were excited about something and then I saw the reason why. A huge square full of color called Poetic Potential was standing outside of the One Discovery Square building. The bright color right next to gray concrete definitely stands out and is something I think Rochester needs more of.so I m all in.
ICYMI: there is a new piece of art in downtown Rochester that is not only full of amazing color but it is interactive. Yes! You can have fun with it and it was designed so you could create and be part of this creation. I snuck over to One Discovery Square and grabbed a few photos to show you up close what this new art is all about. Scroll through.I m pretty sure you ll enjoy it!
