Ollie Working on Mitered Corners
Ollie worked all day by himself on Sunday. Here he is working on the north side of the gallery. Notice the mitered corner. He worked Monday and Tuesday too! Today it has been raining all day . Ollie is out checking on a metal worker to fabricate stainless steel covers for the valleys between each of the steel shelf plates on the south side.

Throughout the restoration of the Underground Art Gallery, those involved are committed to continuing Mr. Wells' work of restoring the earth's surface to a more natural habitat for a sustainable future.
