Murus Curious: did you know that the word “Muras “is Latin for wall? Murals are large colorful, and cultural expressions of art. In this one-week workshop, students will learn about some famous mural artists and view the CCMOA “Walls That Connect: The Cape Cod Mural Project” exhibit. We will make a group project from grid pieces as well as one on an un-stretched canvas to bring home. Please dress for mess, as we will be using acrylic paint & think BIG!

• Appropriate for ages 8-14
• Students must be checked in and out by an accompanying adult
• Students should bring a drink and snack each day
