Students at Edison, under the direction of Gabrielle Bliss, Charles Johnson-Nixon and artist in residence Armando Gutierrez G., designed and built a structure entirely from donated, non-perishable food products from the General Mills Foundation. The space shuttle sculpture fit into the Flint Hills International Children's Festival "flights of fancy theme." Students who worked on the sculpture decided that the invention of the space ship was a crucial development of humankind, symbolizing our desire to grow and explore.
