Fall was the time for another exciting phase of the Rotary Club of North Fulton’s Greenway Mural Project! Our latest efforts began in late September with a Design Workshop, where student artists learned how to translate their creative concepts onto a challenging cylindrical, concrete canvas. Reflecting one of Rotary’s seven areas of focus, this year’s theme was “Clean Water for All.” We were thrilled to receive 36 concept submissions from local high school students—proof that word is spreading about how meaningful this project has become for young artists.
