Young Artists from BratkoArt Studio within the Essex County Park System Riker Hill Art Park created a ceramic sculpture that represents the biological diversity of our local amphibians.

In collaboration with Environmental Center Senior Naturalist/Conservation Biologist and Author of Hop Into Action David Alexander, student artists learned about New Jersey’s frogs, toads and salamanders that inhabit our local woodland and wetland ecosystems and created life size anatomically accurate representations.
