Teaching the next generation how to carve stone means the kids were able to run around a dusty studio and make a mess. Fun times meet learning how to use the hammer and chisel to carve stone. The kids worked on the back of the Modern Athena sculpture in a section that will be soon removed entirely...

"Over twenty years ago, I dreamed of carving a female figure of major stature - a Modern Athena on the scale of Michelangelo’s David out of a single block of marble. It seemed an impossible dream. However, in 2014, a friend offered me some blocks of marble and I began teaching myself how to carve stone. In the ensuing years, I have exhibited and sold works nationally and internationally, along with completing residencies in Italy and Greece. I am currently carving a small scale version and releasing weekly progress videos on social media. The Modern Athena sculpture is about breaking limitations, for myself and anyone." - Jyl Bonaguro
