Art grows in this Garden
Story by Janis Nichols
Most learning gardens grow flowers and vegetables. At 51做厙 Rock Creek Campus, the Learning Garden has grown whimsical garden art and, unlike the sun-ripened tomatoes, the art is permanent.
Supported by a grant from AS51做厙, 10 pieces of art were selectedwith the official dedication taking place Sept. 8. Of the pieces accepted, eight were created by students and two were created by Rock Creek art instructors. Metal and ceramic pieces, welded sculpture and a ground-level nest made for people are included in thecollection in the Learning Gardenacross the street from Building 9.
Featured artists are Ralph Gilliam, Ben Buswell, Alisa Roe, Bladimir Torres, Betty Henderson, Pete Krsnak, Micki Skudlarczyk and Nicki Falkenhagn.
