Christo’s Umbrellas Inspire Scout Patch
Girl Scouts throughout Central and Southern California can earn a new “Under the Umbrellas” patch this month through a project offered by the Joshua Tree Council. Scouts can learn about temporary works of art by studying the newest project of the artist Christo, which includes more than 19 miles of yellow umbrellas around the Tejon Ranch and Lebec areas in Kern and Los Angeles counties.
Scouts can study Christo or the umbrella project through reading, or visits to the site or museum displays featuring the artist’s works. For more information, call (805) 327-1409 or (800) 225-4475.
