To celebrate the Day of the Dead or Dia de los Muertos, students in grades six through 12 were recently invited to the Parkland Community Library to paint and decorate a flower pot.
After decorating the pot, they planted a cactus or succulent in the pot before taking it home.
Examples of art that could be used to celebrate were various sugar skull designs using Sharpies.
The creativity of the students flowed in this colorful library project.
