World map project! Yahoo!
It worked! The fundraiser brought in enough vatu to support the map painting. After a day of healing from the hike, the gang got to work.
We used Jen's projector to trace out the maps and focused on painting for 2 days, only stopping for swims in the ocean and lunch. Here are some photos, but planning on taking some nice ones once I fill in the country names and clean up the drips underneath. I think Jen Nadler stuck some photos on facebook, too!
This ended up being such a fun mark to leave on the school! Good friends and good jams made the work pass by with ease. Plenty of community members have stopped by to check it out and discuss map-like things. I'm hoping to facilitate future toktoks with the adults and I'm really looking forward to the many lessons I'll be leading with the kids. Laura and I are planning Earth Week for sometime in October, so it'll be fun to tie it all together for whoever wants to come learn.
The earth without art is just 'eh'
