The ark was designed by David Israel (Bowdoin Academic Technology Department) with support from Judith Maslin. The design was executed by the extraordinary Brunswick woodworker, Eric Koehler.

The ark is a 2 piece affair that is crafted out of cherry. The exterior is a subtle arts and crafts design that opens to reveal the ten commandments in a traditional way of depicting them.<\/p>\n
