Almost there...





The mural is nearing completion! You may have noticed a new addition, the area to the far right where we will be painting the mural dedication. We will have a mural unveiling and celebration when school begins in mid-September, so look out for fliers!

What would this mural be without Eugene?



Eugene Wright has a mural paint color named after him (see the containers labeled "Eugene Green"). A thirty-year resident of the Irving Place/Gates block, Eugene has been an irreplaceable member of this mural project. If painting is happening, Eugene is there, blessing the wall with his coconut palm tree, green leaves, and wonderful spirit.

Thank You Met Foods!

Thank You Sister's Community Hardware!



In addition to words of advice and support, Sister's generously donated supplies for the mural!
