Come Touch the Tree!


Partner Your Institution with The Firetree Project.​

Add presentations of art, science, and performance. Culminate your on-site presentation with a Firetree Celebration.


INDOOR/OUTDOOR

You don’t need fire to present Firetree’s message of global solidarity. The use of lights, and other effects can produce a stunning presentation in even the most challenging of interior or outdoor spaces.


TRANSPORTATION

Firetree is a puzzle of parts that can be assembled at multiple venues. Once the branches are removed, the steel trunk tilts downward, then easily rolls onto a flatbed trailer for transport. The steel trunk can be detached to navigate through tight spaces.


PROJECTS

Hands-on projects (see below), Firetree memorabilia, and process materials are available to expand your Firetree experience.

​PROJECTS AND ACTIVITIES
The Firetree Project has a variety of activities for adults and children.
​There are many opportunities to add additional interactive ideas.
  • Message Writing - for the Ball of Light.
  • Flip-to-view: Symbolism Blocks plus Board Books - learn about and locate details on the sculpture.
  • Firetree Button Making - cut and press.
  • Firetree Leaf -  aluminum and copper.
  • Flower - aluminum and copper, plus paper.
  • SunStar - foil coated card stock.
  • Lift-up the Sunstar replica.
  • Ring the two bells connected to the tree.
  • Take home a blue marble!

Firetree disassembles for easy transport to any location.

Branches are attached at ground level, then the tree is raised using an industrial hand winch.
Once secured, copper, slate, and other details are added to complete assembly.
