Description of Pictures: Wish Tree for Washington, D.C.
June 23, 2018 – September 3, 2018
A summer favorite, Ono’s interactive artwork “Wish Tree for Washington, D.C.” invites visitors to tie handwritten wishes to branches of a living Japanese dogwood tree in the museum’s sculpture garden. Starting June 23 through Labor Day weekend, the tree will “bloom” with thousands of hopes and ambitions, part of Ono’s global art project that has collected more than 1 million wishes from around the world.

4. WISHTR_180629_39.JPG: Yoko Ono Wish Tree for Washington, DC 2007 Yoko Ono is a prolific artist and has been a notable figure in the art world since the 1960s. Throughout her career, she had created innovative forms of music, performance, poetry, experimental film, and visual art. Her works are primarily intended to be transformative and experiential in nature and require viewer participation. The Wish Tree series, begun in 1996, continues in this interactive tradition. Please use the paper and string provided in this box to write a wish and tie it to the tree. When the tree is full, the wishes will be collected and sent to the artist and then to the Peace Tower that Ono created in Reykjavik, Iceland. Please be gentle when tying wishes to the tree.
