A Public art campaign
No Place Like Home
At Miriam’s House, we believe in the power of a home to provide safety, security, and a new start for those experiencing homelessness. In celebration of Miriam’s House’s 25th anniversary and the 2,500 lives changed through our work, we are thrilled to announce the No Place Like Home art campaign.
25 local artists were given the opportunity to design, paint, or decorate a small wooden doll house in honor of our work to move homeless individuals and families into homes. Artists were asked to respond to the prompt, “What does home mean to you?”
