Lamp Collection and Church Installation in the News

Our Community Light Project has been featured in a couple of stories on the St. Louis Beacon’s website. They focus specifically on the installation of lamps at the church on Spring Ave, but each homes in on a particular aspect of the overall effort. One is an interview with artists Sebastian Hungerer and Rainer Kehres. The other focus more on the collection process and the intent of this project.

“Over the years I attended estate and yard sales for use in my own home and my business–investing in and renting apartments. I want to donate them to a cause I would enjoy better than donating to Goodwill or having a yard sale.”
