Star Tribune covers Groves alum-teacher art collaboration for racial justice

Check out this story in the Star Tribune about teacher Emmy Shanley’s collaboration with former student Ty Taylor — the two created beautiful artwork that honors the racial justice movement and raises money for a local nonprofit.
