Wish Wall Instructions

Welcome to Come to Your Senses! Upon your entrance, we ask that you experience the magic of the “Wish Wall,” an interactive piece inspired by Brazilian artist Rivane Neuenschwander. Follow the steps below to make the most of your visit and become part of this unique expression of community and art.

Step 1: Make Your Wish

• Upon entering the museum, you'll find a station with cream ribbons in the lobby.

• Take a moment to think about your wish. What do you hope will come true?

• Write your wish on one of the provided cream ribbons.

Step 2: Place Your Wish on the Wall

• Head to the tactile room, located to the left of the entrance, just past the sand drift table.

• Find space on the “Wish Wall” to place your ribbon. Watch as your hope joins those of countless others, forming a tapestry of dreams and aspirations.

Step 3: Engage with the Wishes

• Once the wall is full, you’re invited to choose a ribbon with a wish written by a past visitor.

• Consider taking that wish home. By doing so, you're participating in a global tradition inspired by Brazilian customs, where this action symbolizes a connection and hope for someone else’s dream to come true.

Step 4: Share Your Experience

• We encourage you to share your Wish Wall experience with friends and family.

• Post a picture and tag us on social media. Join the conversation with #WishWallExperience @senses916 and @CADAapts and spread the word!

Brazilian Tradition

• According to Brazilian tradition, after taking a ribbon home, knot it three times around your left wrist.

• The belief is when the ribbon eventually falls off, your wish will have come true.

This ever-evolving masterpiece is all about human connections, offering a peek into the lives of strangers. 🌟 What wish will you make?
