Description
An account of the resource
<p>In the mid-to-late 1960s, the Denton Municipal Complex was designed by Texas architect O'Neil Ford. He commissioned Beaumont Mood to make pottery lamps, planters, and urns for each building. Beaumont and his wife, Betty, made the light fixtures for the library.</p>
<p>The 1981 expansion to the Emily Fowler Library added a split-level floor and a breezeway to the front of the building.<br /><br />In addition to more Beaumont Mood pottery lamps, Ford approached another San Antonio artisan, Charlene de Jori to make exterior lighting for the front of the building. <br /><br /><br /></p>

A name given to the resource
Ceramic light fixtures along the exterior wall of the Denton Civic Center.
Description
An account of the resource
Ceramic light fixtures along the exterior wall of the Denton Civic Center are made from red clay. As they have weathered, they have turned a pinkish-hue. Over the years, some have been broken due to hail or vandalism.
We believe there are currently nine remaining. These nine have been removed and are being stored at the Emily Fowler Library.
