Driftwood Art
February 20, 2025
This piece of driftwood from the Florida shores came to life in art class from our adult student's beautiful imaginations. We brainstormed what each person saw in the wood and brought the vision to life as a group. We concluded that it resembled a mother walking up through a meadow, holding a baby, and collecting flowers in a basket she carried over her head. As we were thinking of a name for our piece we shared our vision with Sister Fausta. Sister was reminded of the Madonna Dei Fiori - Our Lady of Flowers. She shared with us that there is a Sanctuary of the Madonna Dei Fiori located in BRA CUNEO, ITALY just 31 miles south east of Turin.

Berry Competition Week 3 – The Edible Easel Painting outside the lines... and dipping into the art! Creating the cutest (and tastiest) berry dip with fresh blueberries, wild blueberry jam, and cream cheese! Nothing beats good food, creative art, and great company. Our creators turned fresh berries, edible flowers, and cream cheese into literal masterpieces with "The Edible Easel" project! Spreading our favorite berry dip onto a canvas and serving it up with breadsticks and a little jam is our new favorite way to snack. Swipe to see the amazing team behind these tasty works of art! Thank you Junior League of Miami for your support!
