Art in Ephraim Public Library / Creating Community: Ephraim Children Responding to Landscape and Community


  • Ephraim Public Library 30 South Main Street Ephraim, UT, 84627 United States (map)

Granary Arts and the children of Ephraim have collaborated to reflect on our community and the ways in which we connect to the surrounding landscape, a place we call home.

During our Workshop Wednesday series, a free art workshop for children and families, students worked together to create a layered landscape of Ephraim and our community. In this project, we looked to the landmarks that surround us: the Wasatch Plateau, local architecture and farmland, and the expansive rural sky. Students collaged colored papers, oil pastels, colored pencils, and hand-colored photographs to create scenes familiar to them and our community.

Creating this piece as a group is representative of the group effort that goes into creating a community as seen through the eyes of the children of Ephraim.
