Saint Paul's Public Artist in Residence, Marcus Young, talks about St. Paul's love affair with poetry. Everyday Poems for City Sidewalks is his latest project and we see how the poems get stamped into concrete and meet some of the poets.
Saint Paul's Public Artist in Residence Marcus Young literally brings poetry to the streets through Public Art Saint Paul's Everyday Poems for City Sidewalk project. Over the past three years, Marcus has worked with city sidewalk maintenance crews to stamp 350 poems penned by Saint Paul residents into the concrete, turning the city streets into pages of a giant book.
