[Highland Park] Still time to join in the Creation of the "Animal Adventure"
<http://www.highlandparkpa.com/node/456>Artists Laura Jean McLaughlin and Bob Ziller welcome you to free community workshops that allow children and adults of all ages to help make the 20 animal figures that will be installed in August on the retaining wall on One Wild Place (formerly "The Hill Road") near the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium <http://www.pittsburghzoo.com/>. "Animal Adventure" is a mosaic mural project for Highland Park facilitated and funded by Citiparks <http://www.city.pittsburgh.pa.us/parks/index.html> Special Programs and the Office of Senator Jim Ferlo <http://www.senatorferlo.com/> and was designed and being executed as a collaboration between the artists, Citiparks, Senator Ferlo, Highland Park CDC <http://www.hpcdc.org/>, Highland Park Community Council <http://www.highlandparkpa.com/org/hpcc>, Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium <http://www.pittsburghzoo.com/>, & Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy <http://www.pittsburghparks.org/>). The free workshops are held at the Farmhouse on the following (remaining) days and times: * Thursday, August 30: 4:00pm - 8:00pm * Saturday, September 1: 10:00am - 1:00pm For more information, call Citiparks <http://www.city.pittsburgh.pa.us/parks/index.html> Special Programs Unit at 412-665-3665. <tel://+14126653665>
All, There will be no mosaic session today at the Farmhouse. As I understand it, all of the initial mosaic work is done. Now the artists have to complete it and schedule the installation on the wall at the top of One Wild Place. The wall has recently been painted with special paint and will need some time to be ready for the installation of the mural. Rudy
