Kea's Ark

Tue, Mar 4 3:30 P.M. NH World (11.3)  

In the 1980s, a three-story ark was built in Newark's devastated Central Ward. Self-taught artist and engineer Kea Tawana designed and constructed the massive boat by herself. She used salvaged materials from nearby 19th-century buildings being torn down, in an area fast becoming an urban wasteland. KEA'S ARK features archival clips of the ark's construction and removal, and interviews with artists, historians and friends who speak to the legacy of Kea's rich body of artistic work.
