Caleb Fredrickson, 7, of Carbondale, looks at an eye of the world he tied onto a dreamcatcher with the assistance of Randy Osborn, the executive director of the Boys and Girls Club of Carbondale, Saturday, April 23, 2016, at Touch of Nature Environmental Center. The club, which partnered with Carbondale Community Arts, received a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts to implement community art projects, Osborn said. Since then, seven community art projects have been completed through the Here We Live: Arts Build Community series. One of the goals of the project was to beat the current world record holder for the largest dreamcatcher, which according to Guinness World Records has a diameter of 9 feet, 10 inches. The dreamcatcher constructed for Saturday has a diameter of 14 feet. We wanted people to think about the dreams they have, an aspiration, said Osborn, referring to why participants tied eyes of the world onto the dreamcatcher. (Aidan Osborne | Daily Egyptian)
