Students re-envision their neighborhood through illustration. During Artist Danyett Tucker’s mural residency program at Hamilton Elementary/Middle School, students celebrated their community by remodeling Main Street and adding their own businesses. The students created all of the drawings and then Tucker collaged their individual efforts together to create the scene that now proudly covers their lunchroom wall.
