Cheryl Kainrad, Art Major at FGCU, along with her group of 6, created this amazing group project, which compiles an array of fishes hanging below a fish net. It was an awareness project, how the touch of a human finger can and does destroy a natural reef. Guests were asked to take down a fish, and destroy it, with throwing it on the ground. It's that simple... The students hand made each fish, which was 100 plus, plus, plus.. and then tied each one to the net above. It was a joy to meet Cheryl and some of her friends, they exude passion and personal pride!! They deserved it!!!
