project overview

Recognize | Cannon Center for the Performing Arts

“The donor wall is a forty foot tall neon, glass and plexiglass “wall-drawing.””

Local artist Terri Jones designed Recognize, which is a piece meant to honor the donors of the Cannon Center for the Performing Arts.  The artwork commemorates contributions for the Arts endowment campaign to what was previously known as the Greater Memphis Arts Council’s Memphis and is now ArtsMemphis. The donor wall is a forty-foot tall neon, glass, and plexiglass “wall-drawing” that lists all contributions at the $10,000 or higher level. The artwork can be viewed from the lobby, the balconies, and the eastern staircase of the Cannon Center.
