On Friday, February 23rd, the Advanced Studio class had the opportunity to meet with local historian, Mr. Lewis Huntley. Mr. Huntley discussed various highlights from Newark's history while displaying to the class a wood carving by Joe Dillett. This wood carving was commissioned in 2004 as part of the Newarks of the World reunion.
