Students will work with a local artist to craft a collaboratively designed mural that gives voice to their hopes and concerns for the world. They will learn about grid enlargement systems, surface preparation and advanced acrylic painting techniques.
Engagement with a professional will give students the opportunity to be involved in the artistic processes of a practicing artist as they develop a concept and work through all subsequent steps to project completion.
Involvement in community art projects builds experience, promotes confidence, raises awareness for career paths in art, provides opportunities for networking, strengthens resumes and gives students the chance to make lasting connections within the local art community.
