SilverStone Gallery !st year Anniversary Bash Opening Celebrations
Students at Dunbarton High School work with Dorsey James, Sculptor, and Amy Cashmir, teacher, to carve out family values. Students were asked to identify those family values which they consider important. The students then created visual symbols representative of each value which students are currently in the process of power carving into cedar planks. The power tools used in the project are provided by Bosch Canada and Dremel USA.
