RIT Graduate Students Help Pack 167 Cub Scouts Create Art in Nature!
With the help of 4 graduate students from RIT’s School of Art the Cub Scouts from Pack 167 in Gananda were able to create works of art at their last pack meeting. On December 14th, Zach Dietle, Mary Dank, Alissa Traub, and Erin Thomas worked with the boys of Pack 167 to emulate the work of noted artist Andy Goldsworthy in creating art using nature. The boys were put into 4 groups and sent off into the woods surrounding the Ginnegaw Park Lodge on a mission to work together to create natural sculptures using the materials in the area. The buzz of activity on a rainy night in December around the lodge was fun to watch as the boys worked together to find the stuff they wanted to use and then put it together. Many ideas were exchanged; things were put together, changed, and then put together again. Pictures were taken of the final works of art to record the event. Then, the boys, practicing the Leave No Trace guidelines of being in the outdoors put everything back into the woods the way they found it. After that it was back into the lodge where the fire was on, cookies and hot cocoa were available for everyone, and Santa Claus made a special visit to hand out the Pinewood Derby cars.
Pack 167 would like to thank Zach, Mary, Alissa, and Erin for their help in creating a very memorable time and to Jackie VanLare, and Walworth Recreation for the use of such a great facility. The boys had a great time and made some great memories.
