Day Ten - Transcending Art


 It's finally time to put the puzzle together!
We have some expert puzzle solvers in my camp!

Mr Kevin was so excited when he got updates on the project, he had to come in for the install day.  Thanks for coming in and spending time with the kids!  They really had a great time.

Everyone got their photo taken holding one of the panels they created.
The kids were so appreciative to meet the artist who created the outline for their mural they made Mr Wenner a big thank you card.
A few individual cards were also made.  One of which said, "It was an honor working on that project piece for the mural.  I learned that one little thing can make a big difference."
Art is often thought of as a one person endeavor, but when you work together as a team you can create a much larger achievement.  These campers colored their panels with the information it would be part of something larger.  They didn't really grasp what the end result would be, but they trusted and completed their paintings.  When they finally saw the mural installed, they were overwhelmed with what they had achieved as a group.
