THE BEE PROJECT
Add your own BEES to this Community Art Installation! Learn how to make your very own bee with found materials, or materials from The Create/Exchange. Install your bees on the honeycombs in New Bohemia (across from Lu’s Deli), or at Indian Creek Nature Center. Enjoy the sight of the community bee swarm while celebrating the importance of bees!
Learn more about this project here: https://grantwood.uiowa.edu/outreach-engagement/bee-project
Share your BEES with the hashtag #crbees
This project was made possible through a collaboration between the Grant Wood Art Colony, Grant Wood Printmaking Fellow Elena V. Smyrniotis, the UI Office of Community Engagement, the Indian Creek Nature Center, and the Czech Village/New Bohemia Main Street District.
