SPIN
honored the businesses and workers of Sunapee Street

Through the medium of "told poetry," Millennium Artist Verandah Porche brought together a broad range of community members and local artists to honor the businesses and workers of Sunapee Street in Guild, New Hampshire. Using the actual words of community members, Porche told the stories of a street that has served as the town's industrial backbone for more than three generations. The project, "Self Portraits in Newport: SPIN in the Millennium," was the basis for Porche's Artists & Communities residency.
