Last week GEMS was lucky enough to have guest artist, designer, and stone mason Thea Alvin to spend time with our students and share with them her work with stone. We are clearing a space near the boulders to put a pallet of river stone so that she can teach the students how to build key stone arches, cones, walls, and other structures. The stones will remain there after her residency so that we can continue to explore and build with them.
Here are some photos from our time with Thea. Check out her website at: http://www.myearthwork.com/thea-alvin/
