Former Ithacan ANDY MOERLEIN will be in town starting this thursday to create two pieces for the 2009 Art in the Heart of the City exhibition - and you can see below that he's in search of SLATE for his pieces. The stone quarry only has sandstone - anyone have any ideas that are legal? (eg taking slate from Six Mile Creek isn't legal ...) thanks - Patricia Haines 339-9472 FROM ANDY MOERLEIN:
I am also looking for a place to gather shale. There are lots of town sites that might work, or perhaps a local quarry would let me pick a van full or two. That is my Thursday afternoon activity. If you could try to find a place close by I would be thrilled with an introduction. I am looking for plate/platter sized slate that is not too thick. I suspect a quarry would sell me as much as I can carry in my van for a nominal fee. Location and access will be my challenge.
