Inspired by the project, the community of Silver City came together and decided to embrace the One Million Bones project as its own. The partners in Bear Mountain Arts (John McNulty, Jeff Brown, Tom and Sharon Dukes, Diane Fisher, Linda Brewer and John Rohovec) offered to host One Million Bones in a permanent installation on location at Bear Mountain Lodge.
In April 2018, ceramic bones remaining from the original installation started to be laid in a wide meadow in the wilderness surrounding the Bear Mountain Lodge in Silver City, New Mexico.
We invite you to join us in the continuation of this project. There are many bones yet to be laid. You are welcome to make your own bone to offer, and we continue to encourage advocacy for survivors and victims of ongoing atrocities, which continue today.
