Carnegie Elementary School SPARK Park

April 1998

Carnegie Elementary School SPARK Park began the legacy for the Art Angels Healing Arts Program.  In 1998, founding artist, Rhonda Radford-Adams was commissioned by the Mayor’s Office SPARK Park program to work with the entire school body, 500+ students, at Carnegie Elementary School to create hand painted ceramic tiles and mosaics for the schools outdoor classroom and other elements of the school park.   Using the theme, Animals that Fly, Radford-Adams created tile mosaic designs of birds, insects, fish, reptiles, and animals that have the unique capability to fly.  The students were encouraged to use their own imaginations towards creating personalized tile pieces that reflected the concept of having the ability to soar to new heights using the power of education.
