Olympus High School 2023 graduate LilyKate Jones has created a fun map of Millcreek and presented it to the people of Millcreek to hang in our new City Hall. ---PAGE BREAK--- High school students recommended by their teachers were invited earlier this year to submit their art portfolios to the City for consideration of creating new art for our new City Hall. Six of them, including LilyKate, were then invited to submit a small sample of a “fun city map of Millcreek.” These six students, who received $100 honorarium for their efforts were: Olympus students Isabel Wilson and LilyKate Jones; and Skyline students Penny Madsen, Addie Madsen, Annie Li, and Raine Bastian. From that group, LilyKate was commissioned for the final 7 foot x 4 foot art work, which will be placed in the public market on the ground floor of the new Millcreek City Hall. LilyKate received $1,000 for her summer’s work on this significant project. She dropped it off literally the day before she moved to Savannah, Georgia, where she will continue growing her talents at the Savannah College of Art and Design. ---PAGE BREAK--- Millcreekers Welcome City Officials From Around the State to the Annual League of Cities and Towns Conference SALT LAKE CITY.
