G20 Summit Winner
Cleveland Job Corps Academy student, Jessica Hall, 21, created the official memento of the G20 Labor and Employment Ministers' Summit Meeting.
The eight-inch-high sculpture is a pyramid fashioned out of black walnut, which is native to Ohio, in which a map of the world is imprinted. Affixed on top are four aluminum figures with outstretched arms.
“It symbolizes united humanity,” said Hall, a Bricklaying student at Cleveland Job Corps.
Mr. Rick Heimann, Hard Trade & Bricklaying Coordinator acted as Hall's mentor and orchestrated producing 50 of the mementos for the Department of Labor.
Cleveland Job Corps Academy is a program of the U.S. Labor Department, which held a national competition among enrollees in the training program for 16 – 24 year olds. The memento beat out students from 20 other programs nationally.
