ST. LOUIS When given a chance to make a wish, most kids may ask for a toy or maybe even an iPad.
But 5-year-old Grayson at St. Louis Children’s Hospital hopes his wish will help other kids like him.
Grayson was granted a wish from the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Missouri & Kansas after getting diagnosed with leukemia in July of 2020.
His wish was to make sure sick kids at the hospital could have fun bed sheets for their hospital beds.
It was something that came to fruition after Grayson told his mom he missed the character bedding and decorations he had in his room at home.
“A number of years have passed since the Arboretum welcomed spring with a sculpture showcase of this magnitude,” says Clara Curtis, Senior Director for Mission Delivery. “We are pleased to present this body of work in our gardens in an effort to enrich and stimulate thought and imagination. The creative process and working with each artist in Wild Art has been a joy.”
Each of the pieces featured in this juried exhibition displays the artists’ reflections on the natural world and wildlife and offers gateways into the surrounding landscape, according to Exhibits Curator Ashlee Lanier.
“We wanted the pieces to give guests another way to contemplate the environment both here at the Arboretum and in the world at large,” Lanier says. “In some ways, these sculptures just feel like they interweave with the gardens here and invite people to explore.”
