“There's no place like home”
Artist: Mark Barta
Sponsor: JCC

In the Artist's words:

"I chose the theme for my squirrel because the Wizard of Oz is a favorite classic at our house and also symbolizes the human values we would hope that all the fine students at JCC would strive for, courage, knowledge and compassion."
