The Black Rock School has been nominated for a Gold Leaf Award from the New England Chapter of International Society of Arboriculture.  The Gold Leaf Award is presented to individuals, organizations, and municipalities that have special projects, events, or ceremonies recognizing Arbor Day.  The Black Rock Garden Club supported the Arbor Day festivities at the Black Rock School and Tara Smiley started the Garden Club at the Black Rock School.  Please visit the Black Rock Garden Club website for more information.

Thank you to Laura Pennock from Black Rock Pilates and the Black Rock Garden Club for their generous and beautiful flowers planted around the Black Rock Art Center.  Wendy Lindquist also generously donated plantings and soon the whole area will be resplendent in colorful plantings.  The watering of the flowers is being done by summer intern volunteers.  If anyone would like to helpout with flowers or other plantings,
