Students at Chenoweth Elementary used cardboard construction techniques and teamwork to create their Water Tower projects in the "Water Tower: Form and Function" project sponsored and produced by the Louisville Water Foundation, the Fund for the Arts and Louisville Visual Art.

Each session included a history and science lesson from Louisville Water, a brief architectural lesson about the Water Tower, a student collaborative water tower drawing plan, much construction and artistic expression, a field trip to the Water Works Museum and Crescent Hill Reservoir and a Family Fun Day at the Water Tower. The project has been packed full of fun, artistic and educational opportunities and local history.
