Student artists came in over our Spring Break to work on our amazing "Evolution of a Scholar" mural. All student designs were approved and taken into account when creating the final composition for this piece. The mural was finished in just over 3 days, due to the art work and dedication of these student artists. The final composition style is influenced by Keith Haring and exists along the long wall in the MPR.

This mural is inspired by Sol Lewitt’s instructions for Wall Drawing #118. We made it to show the students of our school the beauty in our uniqueness. We chose these colors because it represents how we all feel. We chose this design because it brings peace and unity to our school. We chose this spot in the school because it is by the very special art room where we express our inner talents and our feelings. To us, the students of Art Club, this mural represents peace, love, and KIPP: Empower Academy.
