Water from the Spring, by Maxine LainUnder this special project supported by grant monies, the Johnson County Public Library and the Franklin Community High School collaborated to bring Hoosier Artists' images to the classroom. Hoosier Artist paintings owned by the Johnson County Public Library were photographed, digitized, and loaded at the project website for educational use by the Franklin Community High School sophomore class. Students in the class worked form the images at the project website to create mural replicas of select works on the Franklin Community High School walls. As part of the lesson, students wrote artist biographies which were posted at the website with the students mural replicas.
