THE PROJECT

On July 11, 2015, community members gathered at Emeline Park during the Haverstraw Riverwide Arts & Music Festival to create a new piece of public art.

Participants drew striped bass, turtles, wood ducks, and other animals found in the Hudson River. Their drawings were transferred onto tiles, glazed with color, and more than 100 tiles were fired over the summer.
