Prison Art Comes to Grand Marais
Luscious homemade pies, caring hearts and an art teacher at Stillwater Correctional Facility who loved those pies came together and created an art show in Grand Marais. Bill Murray, who taught art at Stillwater for 30 years and still teaches there occasionally, is a regular customer at The Pie Place, said Kathy Rice, who works there. He loves Cook County and has been coming up here for years, she said.
Schools Make Mosaics
Mosaics were the “in” thing to do at two schools in Cook County this spring. Students at both Birch Grove Community School with its art teacher Natalie Shaw, and Jana Larson’s 4th graders at Sawtooth Elementary School have been working with mosaic expert Kelly Dupre to create beautiful mosaics about the North Shore.
