Mar 20, 2014 Crowdfunding For A 300-Foot-Long Slip ‘N Slide
300 FOOT SLIP ‘N SLIDE?YES, please.
Artist Luke Jerram is attempting to secure funding (a la crowdsourcing) to debut a 300 foot slip ‘N slide on May 4th in a hilly city in southwest England. He’s already about $6,000 of the way there of roughly a $9,000 goal.
What’s his REAL goal? (besides making our inner kid’s dream come true?) “Asking people to take a fresh look at the potential of their city and the possibilities for transformation. Imagine if there were permanent slides right across Bristol: linking Clifton with Hotwells; Cotham with Stokes Croft. This is our city, and maybe it’s up to us to shape its future?”
