The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bgcf.org\/\">Blue Grass Community Foundation<\/a> in 2016 put these Transy faculty members in charge of creating the Community Art Cooperative, which is a three-year initiative. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The chairs will be installed in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nolicdc.org\/north-pole-garden\">North Pole Community Garden<\/a> on North Limestone and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/London-Ferrell-Community-Garden\/153775531311085\">London Ferrell Community Garden<\/a> on Third Street. &#8220;The idea is that the availability of seats will encourage people to spend more time in the gardens and engage with others doing the same,&#8221; Todorova said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This week&#8217;s painting session was the final of three. Other participants have included members of the Community Art Cooperative \u2014 who are creative people from neighborhoods near Transy \u2014 and youths in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seedleaf.org\/\">Seedleaf<\/a> summer program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to painting chairs, students in Transylvania&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/2019\/06\/first-year-ambassador-program-helps-new-pioneers-find-their-footing-in-unfamiliar-territory\/\">First Year Ambassador program<\/a> have been developing camaraderie though activities like a ropes course and canoeing, and getting better acquainted with the Transylvania and Lexington communities. They are preparing to be peer guides for their classmates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"810\" height=\"509\" src=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/chairs-810x509.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7039\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/07\/chairs-810x509.jpg 810w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/07\/chairs-350x220.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/07\/chairs-730x459.jpg 730w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/07\/chairs-768x483.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/07\/chairs-1536x966.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/07\/chairs-300x189.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/1780\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2019\/07\/chairs.jpg 1590w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 810px) 100vw, 810px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Students in our First Year Ambassador program put the final strokes on a community art project that will not only enhance the appearance of local gardens, but give people a place to sit and enjoy them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":7034,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[47,145],"tags":[61,151],"feeds":[],"class_list":["post-7033","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-faculty-staff","category-students","tag-top-stories","tag-transy-partners"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) -
