Seventy Five students in the 3rd and 4th grade at Minnie Gant Elementary
participated in this project.

Students were asked to pick a women in their lives that was important to them.
We then had a portrait drawing and painting class. Students were
then supplied with paints and mural squares to draw and paint their
individual portraits.

The completed murals were displayed at the 3-day Womens' Festival of the Arts at
