Hurst Construction team, Scott Rower, James Wittmer and John Smith, recently installed steel panels at Centennial Park, custom made for a permanent public art project titled “Hands in Clay.” In 2009, Heart in the Park (HIP) members worked with THS and TES to capture every student and staff’s thumbprint and name on decorated heart-shaped clay tiles. Every year since, HIP volunteers have returned to TES to create tiles for each of the first-graders and all other new students and teachers. Over 1,200 tiles have been created to date, and these will soon be adhered to both sides of the three panels that were designed by HIP member and artist Audrey Schmitz and fabricated by Hurst Construction.
