School Murals
About the project
We are helping bring public art and education about the importance of nature and pollinators to local schools, beginning with Abraham Lincoln School. Local artists will collaborate with teachers and students to paint a public facing mural on their school.Â
The first mural is slated to be painted by students and installed in September 2024.
Panels being created by Peter Walls using student artwork that the kids will paint this fall.
Bangor Beautiful president, Annette Dodd, and local artist, Peter Walls explained the project in this video shown to students.
Students then created dozens of images that Peter Walls has assembled into a design (shown below) that will be outlined for students to paint when they return to school in the fall.
The Location
The first School Mural will be installed at Abraham Lincoln Elementary School on Forest Avenue, facing Chapin Park.
