Next all classes studied Dale Chihuly, one of the most intriguing 21st century glass blowing installation artist.  That's a mouthful!  The students love, love him!  They know tons of super fun facts about him. They created pieces of art out of plastic that was then melted, similar to blown glass. They installed the pieces as if they were installing it on the ceiling, as intended for the installation. It hangs in the library.  The students are amazing.
