During one of many cleanup sessions at the very beginning of 019 we came across an old discarded flagpole which once hung on the side of the building. We restored that flagpole to its original spot and raised a flag introducing ourselves to the neighborhood.

Since then we’ve invited many artists to contribute to the project. Sometimes the flags promote an event happening in or around 019, sometimes they act as a platform for the artist’s work, sometimes they spread a message or opinion.

In march 2015 we added 14 more flagpoles to the building.
