McEver Arts Academy fourth-grader Athena Lux, 9, writes upside down Friday on a large mural created by artist Karin Mervis with students and staff and parents at the school.
A grant and community artist combined to help brighten up the McEver Arts Academy cafeteria. The elementary school students along with school staff and parents have worked with Georgia-based artist Karin Mervis to paint a 15-foot by 9-foot acrylic mural painting on wood, sponsored by a Dairy Council grant. The mural features different healthy foods from the five basic food groups, as well as plenty of dairy-related items.
