Mapleton Expeditionary School of the Arts students “Turn on the Light!”
Nearly 30 students at Mapleton Expeditionary School of the Arts created working lamps this fall through a Marchi Mini Grant–funded ceramics project that blended art, engineering, and science. The hands-on experience challenged students to design, sculpt, glaze, and wire functional pieces while building real-world skills.
