Claire Sampson, 10, a fifth grader at Saugatuck Elementary School, proudly poses for a picture for her mother, Carol, today after her workshop project “The Dilemma of Teardowns” was installed at the Westport Historical Society. After seeing the Feb. 4 posting about Claire’s project on WestportNow, the exhibit committee for the current exhibit “Westport Preserved-Westport Lost” decided to add it to the exhibit in the Little Gallery. It is next to a slide show of the WestportNow teardown feature by contributing photographer Dave Matlow. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com

Great that a student has gotten involved too! I saw Dave Matlow’s carefully researched tear-down exhibit (as well as the wonderful main exhibit of all the houses that have been preserved … or lost! … in Westport) at the Historical Society last Monday. Fascinating, and it’s an exhibit that everyone will enjoy.
