Parkway Elementary School’s fifth-grade art club created an earth-friendly mural of the galaxy through the use of bottle caps.

Under the direction of art teacher Franceska Baer, 40 fifth-grade art club students spent three months constructing the planets and stars of our galaxy.

The students collected numerous bottle caps with the help of the entire school. Students and staff were asked to bring in bottle caps and lids of containers to help supply the mural.
