A group of students from Elkridge Landing Middle School, under the direction of school art instructor Patti Battaglia, and artist Mary Deacon Opasik, from Catonsville, have been enthusiastically awaiting the final presentation and installation of the giant mosaic!

The art project, created with broken glass and dishes has been ongoing for an entire year. Battaglia began organizing this huge art venture, along with her supervisor, Mark Coates, last summer. The project is entitled, “Elkridge Branch Library Beautification Mosaic.”

Please stop by the library and admire the amazing ocean scene up close summer. It is a sight to behold!
