"In Bloom"
Congratulations to the interns for their accomplishments. This summer was hot and the long wall with a detailed wild flower design, by artist Laura DeDonato, were challenging obstacles to overcome. We are proud of you for your persistence, dedication, willingness to learn and grow, and for the beautiful work you created. We hope this mural, entitled "In Bloom," will be enjoyed by the community for many years to come!

Mural Team 2012
It's summer time and you know what that means... a new mural!
This year we have new and familiar faces on the mural team. Veterans Keisha and Carmen are back for their second year of the Summer of Work and Learning on the mural team. They will be helping artist Laura DeDonato and team leader Nanette Shea guide the newcomers throughout the mural process.
The location for this year's mural is at The Charity Guild at 501 Main Street, Brockton, MA 02301. Come check out our work!
Day 1 - PRIME TIME
After some weeding, it was time to start painting! The students began priming the wall, which had already been scraped, sanded and cleaned. The Laura and Nan patched holes in the concrete wall while students cut and rolled the 200ft long wall.

Week 4, July 2011
This week is when all of our hard work filling the wall in paid off!
Students began rendering, blending and adding contrast to the wall with different wet and dry techniques.
Check out the transformation:
