Artist Jackie Ferrara's installation for the Washington State Convention Center is one of her earliest architecturally integrated projects. It uses slate tile and artist-designed benches to define a Meeting Place in the middle of convention activities. This artwork was acquired for the State Art Collection in partnership with Washington State Convention and Trade Center.
