Children's Nest Egg at Parktacular

Children's Nest Egg had a booth at the "Promote Yourself" section of Parktacular at Wolfe Park on June 14. The designer talked to many passers-by on the beautiful Saturday afternoon and almost 80 writing forms were handed out. A clay model of the bench was created during the event, and several kids took a turn at shaping and smoothing the model. Here are some images of what was on display:

Also on June 13, 5-10 p.m., the St. Louis Park Community Foundation included materials for the project at their table at the Parktacular Street Dance with Tim Mahoney Band at Excelsior and Grand Town Green.
