Over 42,000 people visited a piece of public artwork which saw giant iridescent spheres installed at the Esplanade this summer.
Bubbletecture, which opened on Thursday 28 August, came to a close yesterday afternoon.
It attracted over 42,000 visitors to the IFC2 site, with 27 free programmed activities across three weekends.
Audiences enjoyed free cultural and wellbeing activities at the site – including live music, yoga classes, DJ sets, arts and craft workshops, children’s bubble play and entertainment.
There was also five performances of a newly commissioned dance piece performed by Jersey’s own Ballet d’Jerri, with internationally acclaimed choreographer Jamaal Burkmar.
The project was delivered by ArtHouse Jersey in partnership with Jersey Development Company and sponsored by Butterfield.
ArtHouse Jersey director Tom Dingle said: “Bubbletecture has been nothing short of extraordinary.
“Thousands of islanders came together to laugh, play, dance, create and share moments of wonder in a space that was once simply an empty site.
“It has shown us how, when art is made free and accessible, it has the power to transform not only our physical environment but also the way we connect as a community.”

He added: “I’m deeply grateful to Butterfield and JDC for their support, to the many performers, facilitators and partners who helped make this project possible – and of course the ArtHouse Jersey team and fleet of incredible volunteers who delivered this project to the public so seamlessly.
“Together, we’ve created memories that will last long after the bubbles have gone.”
