Three Rooms Gallery/Felix Pottery teamed with the Partnership of Community Resources by making ceramic art and attaching bells for the Ben's Bells Project at the gallery Saturday.
The Partnership of Community Resources started the Carson Valley version of the Ben's Bells project to spread the power of kindness.
A similar project began in Tucson in 2003, a year after Ben Marc-Packard died of croup just before his third birthday. His family created ceramic art with attached bells called Ben's Bells and hung them around town to remind people to be kind to each other.
The Partnership of Community Resources and Three Rooms Gallery/Felix Pottery will set aside days during the summer when members of the community may create art pieces to be hung around town to spread the power of kindness.
Three Rooms Gallery, home of Artisan's Shoppe, Felix Pottery, and Artisans International, is at 1459 Highway 395, Gardnerville. Information, 782-5434.
