Last Year’s Projects
Butterfly Project:
First, we have to thank Pete Grace who took Marie’s hand-drawn chicken scratches and turned them into beautiful wooden butterflies. He donated all the supplies and his talent. Thank you, Pete!
A small army of neighbors and friends collected thousands of plastic bottle caps. Literally, thousands.
Camp Sonshine and ACLAMO Family Centers painted the front side of all the butterflies during last year’s summer camps.
Hundreds of bottle caps were glued on during Garden Storytime with the Pottstown Regional Public Library at Mosaic Community Land Trust‘s 423 Chestnut St Community gardens.
Many more bottle caps were glued on at the YWCA Tri-County Area Summer Fun Days.
Every single bottle cap was screwed in by Marie to make sure they didn’t fall off.
The kids attending this year’s summer camp at the Ricketts Center painted most of the back sides of the butterflies.
2 more of the back sides were painted at North End Swim Club yesterday.
10 butterflies were hung at North End Swim Club. We are so grateful that Candice, Board President, allowed us to put them on display at a place where the kids who made them could see them.
For the first time ever, we hung a sign saying that the art install was made by the community, for the community.
