Yoko Ono Wish Tree

February 14 - February 17

Yoko Ono Wish Tree

💌 SIGN UP HERE  for our weekly newsletter featuring more events, guides, exclusive giveaways, and discounts!

Yoko Ono is a groundbreaking and influential artist and activist, with a multidisciplinary career spanning conceptual art, film, and performance. A trailblazer of early conceptual and participatory work, a celebrated musician, and a formidable campaigner for world peace, her practice centers on ideas over objects, often expressed in poetic, humorous, profound, and radical ways.

Her powerful, participatory practice is realized at the Armory with the largest installation of her ongoing work Wish Tree in North America to date. Within the Wade Thompson Drill Hall, a grove of 92 trees will be installed in honor of the influential artist’s 92nd birthday. Visitors are invited to contribute by tying personal wishes to the trees, creating a large-scale, yet intimate activation of her social practice work.

The installation also intersects with our Making Space series of public programs with a two-day symposium of conversations, panels, and activations that trace Ono’s radical approach to art, language, and participation while amplifying her legacy of peace activism, female empowerment, and challenging the boundaries of artist and audience.
