Local Students Will Design Mosaic Wall for Dearborn’s New Intermodal Rail Station

September 26, 2012 By News Release

DEARBORN, Michigan – The Dearborn Community Fund (DCF) has announced names of students representing three  Dearborn public high schools on the 2012-13 POP project design team. The students will collaborate in designing a mosaic wall for Dearborn’s new Intermodal Passenger Rail Station.

Ten students from Edsel Ford, Fordson and Dearborn High School in Dearborn have been selected by the Dearborn Community Fund to work on the 2012-13 Pockets of Perception project team. The students will design a mosaic to be installed in Dearborn’s new Intermodal Passenger Rail Station, scheduled to open in late 2013. For inspiration, the team visited mosaics and murals at Detroit’s People Mover Stations, the Detroit Public Library and the College for Creative Studies. Visiting the mosaic at the Renaissance Center People Mover Station, from left, front: Reem Aoun, Siham Saleh, Mary Charara, Aleen Bazzi, Khalid McDowell, Claire Young, Mona Beydoun, Leah Wendzinski, Jack Davis (in back), Paolo Mastrogiacomo (chaperone), POP instructor Mohamad Bazzi, and Frankie Nunez.

    As long as the mosiac is not a design of expansionism of Islam take over. To desensitize the minds of people to give sympathy in demagogue.

    Well David doesn’t it seem like a pretty diverse group of students, why would they focus on only one religion? You let your ignorance get in the way resulting in an uncalled for remark.
