City in Color

Woven Culture • Texas Highways Magazine

It’s hard to choose whether it’s best to see Woven Culture while driving or walking over the Carolina Bridge. A close-up view allows time to feel the textures and colors. Viewing from the car reveals the whole of it—a mesmerizing rainbow structure jutting into the sky. Along either side of the roadway, the piece includes sarape-like patterns and depictions of nopales, or prickly pear cacti. The team behind Creative Kids, a nonprofit that provides art education to youth in El Paso, created the sculpture with a group of eight children. “This piece was done to reflect the diverse and rich culture we have living on the border—hence the name,” Creative Kids executive director Andrea Gates-Ingle says. “This piece offers El Paso residents and visitors a symbol that signifies building bridges of community.” Click Here
