Stanford Neighborhood Puzzle Piece Treasure Hunt

This Winter and Spring, I’m inviting Stanford students to share, paint, design, and play the Stanford Neighborhoods’ Puzzle Piece Treasure Hunts.

Community Mapping Workshops. SHARE stories about places in your neighborhood which matter to you. I’ll incorporate selected stories into a design representing your neighborhood.

Painting Sessions. Help PAINT the designs on jumbo wooden puzzles.

Design Sessions. Work with fellow students to DESIGN a treasure hunt for your neighborhood. Write clues. Develop a theme. Decide where to hide the puzzle pieces.

Neighborhood Treasure Hunts. PLAY the treasure hunt to find puzzle pieces hidden in your neighborhood.

This 2023–2024 academic year, Christine Wong Yap is the Stanford Neighborhood Visiting Artist, hosted by Residential Education and the Office of the Vice President for the Arts.

Thanks to Deborah Cullinan, Ellen Oh, Edi Dai, Cole Shiflett, and Taylor Jones.
