Students had been in an 8 week Viewfinder Photography project prior to our trip. With their photography skills, students were given cameras on the trip. They took over 2,800 photos on our trip!
We started the trip with a Photo Scavenger Hunt in the Loop. Groups had to find various pieces of art in the city and follow directions. At the Picasso, one of our group members had to take a picture of another group member jumping in the air in front of the sculpture. I missed getting that particular photo!
We ended our first evening at "Agora", a sculpture of over 100 pairs of legs walking in different directions. We had a great devotion and small group time there.

| We toured the FireHouse in Lawndale. |
 |
| We ate Chicago style pizza at Lou Malnati's in Lawndale. |
 |
| We went up 103 floors to the viewing floor of the Sears Tower! Awesome! |
 |
| On Thursday, the group toured the Art Institute and saw several paintings we had been studying. |
On the trip home, each van recalled 100 memories of our Chicago Trip. Stopping at the World's Largest Truckstop on I-80 was one of just so many terrific memories from this trip! The group bonded as friends and as a team, had tons of fun together, experienced new and exciting city adventures, and had the opportunity to witness God's love and beauty in so many ways throughout our three days together. Christ-centered, relational, wholistic development! Go, Youth Art Team!
