The exhibit is part of a community service project she is completing as a component of her graduate degree. "I felt it made the most sense to do something in my own com­ munity," she said. "We got a beautiful high level of work. There was a high turnout, and y ur appliance authority good quality works were turned away." The call for work went out in August, and again after Labor Day.
