Cherry Valley requests

art supplies

A collaborative mural project between local artist Daniel Cautrell

and students and staff at Cherry Valley will begin in January.

"This is a House of Learning" project will provide students with

an opportunity to create a lasting and permanent tribute to their school

and extend an element of support and inspiration to current and future

students, staff and visitors to the school.

For this project to be successful, help is needed from the

community. The artist hopes to have donations of 5/8- or 3/4-inch plywood,

photographers to document the project, and a plaque to commemorate the mural.

If you can help in any way, call Daniel Cautrell at (206) 903-1989

or Doug Pierce at (425) 788-1555.
