Klay for Kenya
I stood completely humbled in the
second grade class of Saint Olaf School today. I didn’t walk into a classroom; I walked into
a beautiful gallery full of budding artists, potters, and storytellers. Over the past few months, these amazing
second graders and their beyond inspiring teacher, Mrs. Jacobs, worked with me
in creating clay bowls. We made a mess,
experimented with textures and color, laughed, and shared stories about art. What I discovered in this messy adventure is
that these kids have got true hearts and genuine creativity. The kids made clay bowls to be sold
in their class art show. All money
collected from art sales is going to “Koins for Kenya”, which is an
organization that builds schools in Africa.
Thank you Saint Olaf School for putting your heart out into the world!
