We were honored that Learning in Color trusted us one more time with this exciting project, continuing a collaboration where we have created murals in several schools that celebrate creativity, community, and opportunity. With the support of amazing volunteers from Cox, this mural became a true team effort filled with energy and purpose.
One of the most fun parts of the process was meeting with students to gather their ideas. They helped shape the direction of the design, making them part of the creative journey from the very beginning. Their imagination inspired elements connected to sports, arts, music, and innovation, ensuring the mural reflects what makes their school unique.
A special highlight is the YMCA door, which the school shares for the gym. Instead of standing out, it is now cleverly camouflaged within the mural as a rocket, representing the STEAM program and symbolizing curiosity, exploration, and big dreams taking off. The design also honors Davis and Cousins, two individuals who played important roles in building and strengthening the East Lake community.
The most rewarding part has been the daily compliments from the kids, who walk by wide-eyed and full of excitement. Seeing them feel inspired and proud of a space they helped imagine reminds us why we love doing what we do. Moments like these truly bring learning to life in color. 🎨🚀
