Heather Jarry's multimedia project 'Remembering Wilma Rudolph' will tell the Olympian's story over the course of a full month at the Carver Library.
Arts Eclectic turns the spotlight on happenings in the arts and culture scene in and around the Austin area. Through interviews with local musicians, dancers, singers, and artists, Arts Eclectic aims to bring locals to the forefront and highlight community cultural events.Support for Arts Eclectic comes from Broadway Bank.“It takes a lot of patience,” says artist Heather Jarry about her newly honed skill of carving wooden puppets.
“Each day I will set up a scene to illustrate the story that I'm telling, which is about Wilma Rudolph,” Jarry explains. “I will have the text written out in sections for each day to read, kind of like a storybook. And I will also have a recording of the story that you can access by a QR code and listen to.” The recordings will be available in English and Spanish and there will also be a story quilt by folk artist Suzette Boston on display as part of the project.
