Collaborate with us


If you’re interested in being a part of PLACE, please get in touch and share a bit about yourself.

We are always looking to bring local artists into our projects. If you have skills that are adjacent to the work we do (like making magical windchimes or creating sculpture installations or designing custom labyrinths), we’d love to keep you in mind.

We also love to partner with people in connected fields, like landscaping, grading, construction, and more. Please tell us more about what you do and how you like to collaborate.

For all of the above, mel@placebymel.com.
