"Y" a Rabbit?
Because this is the Year of the Rabbit -- "Y' not?
The colorful YMCA rabbit depicts four popular Y fitness opportunities. A family of three enjoys swim lessons, a woman balances in the yoga tree position, and a youthful boy exercises on a spinning bike. The rabbit itself lifts weights.
Artists: Irv, Barry and Larry
Irv Webster, professional graphic designer, created the design. Homestead HS rising sophomores Barry and Larry collaborated to paint the rabbit. Craig Cummings modified the feet to add sneakers (which were then painted by Barry & Larry)
Barry and Larry are part of the graduating class of 2026 at Homestead High School. They have been passionate about art and drawing since a young age, and have been honing their skills in art classes. Barry and Larry often draw on the same canvas, depicting scenes of their two characters Goofy and Candice; together being called Goofice.
