This is special community art project recognizing & honoring Americans, their families, and friends who have lost their lives this year due to COVID-19. Dozens of panels have been printed with beautiful red rose petals overlaid with 4,680 small squares.

Light a candle, flashlight, lantern, firepit, etc., to defy the dark, and let our neighbors know we are with them. Immediately after the lighting, people can look up and see the very rare conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter.
