Lincoln High School Hosts Bowl A Thon
January 21, 2008

Many may think individuals participating in such an event labeled “Bowl A Thon” would be tossing a ball down an oil-filled alley or tossing a pigskin around in preparation for the Super Bowl.  But Saturday’s Bowl A Thon at the Lincoln High School invited students, faculity, and community members to use their hands in a different sense, to create ceramic pottery bowls.

The Bowl A Thon, an event sponsored by four-year, Lincoln High School art teacher, Raquel Wratney, is part of the Ellwood City Community Enrichment’s Annual Arts and Humanities Series.  A few participants created their own bowls while others painted pre spun ceramic bowls created by Wratney.  All the bowls created and painted during the Saturday Bowl A Thon will be auctioned off at a dinner-and-an-art-show in March.  The fundraising event will be held at the First United Methodist Church on March 4th and with the help of Wratney and those who took part in the Bowl A Thon, now will have plenty of super bowls to auction off.
