How It Works: Select a rock, paint/draw on the rock images, messages, encouragement, feelings, art, or what ever you want.  Then add it to the tree line garden area located in the middle Greenbriar/Saybrook park, barked/natural areas (not grass) around the trees.

​​Who: Anyone who wants to participate, all ages
What: rocks painted your expressions on a rock and share it in our garden
When: Started 3/27/2020 – no end date
Where: Greenbriar Saybrook Park, in State College, PA  (row of trees in between near the Greenbriar pavilion) Google maps: https://goo.gl/maps/X6av42yNZz3LLYJ16
 
    Instructions:

• Think about a feeling, message, word, encouragement, etc. you want to express
• Locate a rock, consider the texture and size as it relates to your expression
• Clean the rock, may need to scrub with soap and water
• Paint/draw your image, words, phase, symbols, etc on the rock
  • You can use anything you want, paint, markers, crayons, nail polish, glitter… be as creative as you wish… stick figures are good too
  • You may want to apply a base coat then paint on top of that layer
• Be sure to seal your work with a clear coat of paint or nail polish
• You can add your name or not.  I would suggest first names or initials only if you do. Dates are fine.
• Add your rock/rocks to the garden area: row of trees located in the middle of Greenbriar park

 
Guidelines:

• If others are visiting the garden, please remain 6’ apart
• Add rocks in bark area around the trees, NOT IN THE GRASS
• Don’t touch someone else’s rock
• Add as many rocks as you want, whenever you want
• Share this with other friends especially in Greenbriar, Saybrook, Chestnut Ridge, and Chestnut Ridge Manor.
• No experience or special skill necessary
• If you would like to participate and are unable to get out of your home or walk the distance within the park, I would be happy to pickup your rock, add it to the garden and send you pictures, I bet your next door neighbor would also.
• If you would like to help with this project by clearing away the leaves and brush around the trees, feel free. Thank you
