Sculpting at the 'House at Pooh Corner'

Wednesday, June 5, 2002

The hands of Nick Meissner busily form sculptures of characters from A.A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh stories during a summer art workshop offered by the McCook Art Guild at the McCook Fine Arts Gallery, 209 Norris Ave. Emily Slattery, Amy Been, Alexis Marks, Brooke Burton and Kellanie Pinkal are also shown, with instructor Sondra Jonson in the background.

The summer classes continue June 10-13 with Keri Steinke and Jennifer Robinson offering a workshop on multi-media.
