Dear Walden Families,
Walden students have been invited to participate in painting a community mural in Berkeley that will be painted on a fence located on the east side of Shattuck Avenue between Dwight and Blake streets. The mural painting day is April 20th, from 10:30AM-1:00PM. No preparation is needed, but please RSVP, and wear clothes that can get a little messy!
The mural has been designed by local artist Nigel Sussman, and is called “We are all Neighbors!”
Please RSVP as soon as you can, so I can let the organizers know how many students from Walden are planning on participating. This is a great opportunity to use your art skills to uplift your local community and leave your mark!
-Ruth
