Metamorphosis: Artistic Transformations




This week, La Puente's nominee for Teen Volunteer of the Year, John K., made Project Runway (Or is it Project Metamorphosis?) work! He revived his favorite YA event, by acting as tailor for teens sewing iPod Cozies — and filmed his contribution for a high school graduation capstone.
A local artist helped with other art activities, including helping teens transform ordinary rocks into glittering lady bugs and dapper penguins.
