Mesa Motivational Mural by Erika Wygal




I propose that a mural should be affixed to a wall surrounding the cafeteria area. The area surrounding the cafeteria is well travelled by many of the students who attend classes at Mesa College. Yet the blue painted walls give off a feeling of restriction. A splash of color added to the area in which students eat lunch would greatly improve the atmosphere. The mural will feature several historical figures such as Martin Luther King and Mahatmas Gandhi. This will give the message to students that even one person can make a difference in the betterment of humanity. The mural, set on the wall in front of which newstands are regularly placed, will symbolize the scale of which change is reached in our community, from past to present. This will motivate the students to strive to achieve their goals, and become all that they can be.

  2. I agree that this area has a huge amount of traffic and it should be better used. Not only adding art would make it look better you can make a statement in what you present on that wall. - Patricia Eidelwein

  6. You really need to show this to those in charge of that wall. Adds life to a pretty much dead area.
