RCP HAS A MURAL!

A crew of PAL members painted a mural on the wall of the Buttonwood Street side of the building during the weekend of July 20/21/22. Additionally, they painted the fence that encloses the yard and upgraded the yard space as well.

Our contact was Meghan Blevins, Program Coordinator of the Mentoring and the Arts Program at the PAL. Guest artist was Jessica Sheetz, who helped the students design and execute the mural.
