TMS's New Mural

This mural was created at Tiverton Middle School over 8 weeks as a part of the Tiverton After School Arts (TASA) program. The 5th through 8th grade students along with their art teacher, Mr. Tracy, worked for an hour and a half every Wednesday after school. The image and positive messages cover the walls of one of the schools stairwells and will be seen my hundreds of students daily.

Special thanks to TASA, Gloria Christ, Tara Carr, Laurie Dias-Mitchell, Tim Leary, all the students involved and their parents.
