Activity: Abbott will direct visitors to the park in coloring in the artwork. A Table with supplies

Participants will be shown how to select a color, and apply it to the ground surface in an
attractive way. The result will be a vibrant tapestry of images winding down the walkway,
inviting visitor to the central plaza.
