To participate in Rise Up ChattanoogaLadders may be dropped off at Glass House Collective from 1 to 7 p.m. every day until Feb. 22. People who can’t deliver ladders may call 402-0565 for pickup service. The ladders will be returned after March 25.
Glass House Collective launched block parties, neighborhood workshops and architectural design sessions to uplift the Glass Street community.
The latest venture will be a temporary neighborhood ladder sculpture posted on a vacant lot near the corner of Glass and Awtry streets.
Rise Up Chattanooga, as the sculpture will be called, will stand only for a month after it’s been constructed.
The achievement isn’t solely in the finished work but also in the process, said Charlie Brouwer, a Virginia-based artist whom Glass House commissioned to do the sculpture.
