With the help of a few of my art helpers we began the beginning process of assembling our first mural at Black Creek. A few years ago I was inspired by a large school community art project that was being done in Appleton School District. It was called the "Compassion Project". Over 10,000 students in Appleton depicted the word "compassion" on a single tile. It was amazing to see in person.
In the beginning of this school year I received some donation money and decided this would be a perfect use for it. I ordered 350 tiles for the students at Black Creek. Each grade had a different media to use for their tile--some are done in sharpie, colored pencil, glaze, paint, pastel ect. The mural will be displayed near the office and should be up before next school year. Take a look at how it is coming together!
