Young Artists' Clay Creations Add Personality to a Garden at the Saline District Library

Students from Clay ART!, a class offered by Saline Community Education, added a temporary outdoor installation of handmade ceramic garden art at the Saline District Library.

The display of bird and flower garden stakes can be viewed in the Peace Pole Garden located in front of the building near the Youth department window. 

To create their pieces, the students learned the clay hand-building method of slab construction and then embellished their projects with texture tools and glaze. The students hope their art pieces enhance the viewer’s experience of the garden with surprise and delight.
