Students will work on collaborative projects that will be on temporary exhibition in the park. Close contact with working artists and art students in these two countries as well as a visit to the National Art Academy in Tallinn Estonia will provide a wide range of exposure to contemporary issues in visual art in Europe. Visits to major art museums, cultural sites will be arranged in each country. For those students who choose to extend their stay in Europe, Helsinki is the ideal city from which to visit St. Petersburg Russia and the Hermitage Museums and other world-class collections and historic sites

Reconstructing Villu's Furnace







Students have been taking trips with Finnish sculptor and instructor Villu Jaanisoo to the University in Helsinki to reconstruct his large iron casting cupola.

Andy prepares the furnace for its patched lining and new panels.

Mike Hill spot welds the panels in place.


The day ends with a surprise visit to a local library where Vilu has on display a very very lager monkey!
