Julia's Andy Goldsworthy Inspired Birthday Party

Julia Johnson (Westmont ’11) celebrated her 21st birthday on Monday. Julia enjoys hugs, ultimate Frisbee, art and biology, so what better way to celebrate her birthday than to give her lots of hugs, play a game ultimate in the cold New Zealand rain, and then have an Andy Goldsworthy inspired art show?Little did we know when groups and individuals scattered throughout the yard, but on reconvening an hour later we discovered that there are some fairly talented artists among us! Some of the art pieces included a nearly life-sized sculpture of Julia herself, a work incorporating hundreds if not thousands of tiny daisies that were growing in our yard, and a beautiful tree created by Issac (Messiah ’12) right next to our recycling bin. There was also a tunnel of New Zealand flax plants and a willow tree branches, made by our very own Student Life Coordinators, affectionately known as SLCs, they’re quiet a resourceful bunch.
