"To
loose the restraint of education, to let hand and eye do what they will, and
thus through them reveal [nature]." -- Stephan Mallarme
This
is the story of Don Sunset who founded GRACE (Grass Roots Arts and Community
Effort) in 1975, as an art program for residents of a nursing home in St.
Johnsbury, VT. At his death in 2001, GRACE offers 500 workshops a year in
nursing homes, mental institutions, schools and community centers - to the
elderly, disabled, children and anyone who comes in the door.
