About this event:Let’s paint a beautiful mural together! Join artist and art educator, Haerim Lee, for this fun and creative community driven mural workshop. She will guide you through the process of creating a unique mural which will lead to community-based public art “Community Wealth Garden.” The mural will be composed using a green color palette—light lime green, grape green, apple green, olive green, emerald green, pine green, oak brown, and Vandyke brown including native flower images. We will paint shapes of plants, vines, leaves, petals and flowers and depict sustainable garden images. We hope the community will enjoy the participatory process, which will make the public mural come alive.
