This Little Piggy Went to Market ...

Tuesday, August 8, 2006

College's pig arrives at future site of downtown library children's wing Market Street, that is, where it joins other creative entries in a fund-raiser for James V. Brown Library's new children's wing. The college is among the sponsors that bought a life-size fiberglass pig to decorate for the public-art initiative. The pig sports a cap, gown and laptop in recognition of Penn College's technology-based "degrees that work," and was designed and executed by Phillip C. Warner, student writer-photographer, and Alfred M. Thomas, associate professor of collision repair, with inspirational assistance from Gail B. Landers, a group leader at the Children's Learning Center. More information about the project is available online. ( Photo by Phillip C. Warner, student writer/photographer)
