31 Independent & Free Press, Thursday, June 24, 2010 Local connection to G8 Tara Marsh has a fishy connection to the upcoming G8 summit in Huntsville. The Williams Mill glass artist and her colleague David Thai created one-ofa-kind fish sculptures that will be in front of each leader during the talks. Marsh only had a week to complete the 12 glass sculptures, which included a few extras in case any break on the trip to Huntsville.
