Up Against the Wall

In the beginning….

In the beginning the walls of the high school were lined with unused lockers. The lockers were removed and bare walls were exposed.

Let’s

cover the

walls

with

murals!!!

So…….

the work

begins

Student Involvement

Many students were involved in the creation

of the murals, not just art students.

The artists

drew the

pictures

The students can make it their own on our Graffiti Wall

( And we

don’t have

any other

graffiti in

the school)

Other students

‘followed the

dots’

Different organizations chose a

wall…

Images could be projected onto the

walls to aid students in their creations

and allowing non-art students a

chance to show their creative side.

Over 100 students

worked on the

project

So Much Fun!!!
