Modern Stone Arrangement in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.This modern stone 'oval' focuses on an outdoor amphitheater in a public park. The project was conceived of by Cory Wanamaker as a practicum in volunteer community art.
All stones were donated by the public and each one was numbered and cataloged to preserve the "story" of that particular stone. The size of the stones varies from the truly megalithic to ones not much bigger than a grapefruit.
A website associated with the project can be found here at a Goddard College web address.

Note: Charming Stone Circle Built from "personal" stones.
