BPAC (www.BasaltPublicArtsCommission.com) has commissioned four wildlife ice sculptures for the winter of 2021 to be placed around town. You can enjoy scouting out the fox, bear, wolf, and osprey at the library, downtown and in Willits. We would like to invite you to create a beautiful ice lantern to be placed by the art sculptures to add light to the animals at night. Below are instructions to create one at home with the material in your bag!

  3. Mientras sostiene la taza más pequeña, vierta agua en la taza más grande. 
  4. Agregue piedras o monedas en el vaso más pequeño para evitar que flote.  
  5. Coloque la taza en el congelador durante la noche..
  6. Una vez congeladas, saque las tazas y colóquelas en agua tibia hasta que pueda quitar la linterna de hielo.
