My friend and co-worker Marcia Eames-Sheavly spent most of last week at Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, Pa. She and one of her former students built a sod sculpture on the grounds there with the help of Longwood staff and about 30 attendees of the American Horticultural Society’s (AHS) National Children & Youth Garden Symposium.
The story and more pictures at the Cornell Living Sculpture website.
Update 7/31/2008: Charlotte Kidd, one of the symposium participants, blogged about it as part of her NGA Mid-Atlantic Regional Report: Living Sculpture For the Young and Young at Heart
Wow, that’s beautiful. Something that young and old alike can appreciate, for sure.
