Celebrate Christina Pettersson’s Birthday at the Miami City Cemetery
Art ExhibitionsEvery year the artist enjoys a picnic lunch alongside the grave of John Alfred Ball, a young man with the same birthday as Pettersson, who died in 1918. Join Locust Projects and Christina Pettersson in enjoying the artist’s usual meal of fried chicken and champagne together with other Southern Swamp classics. Listen to tales of the dead, and perhaps search for your own birthday soul mate.
