In partnership with Compton District 2 Councilperson, Andre Spicer, the Compton Mural Project will take a cohort of 15 youth, grades 7-12th, through a process of learning about Compton history, the importance of civic engagement, what social justice can look like, mural design, safety and conversation. Students will work directly with a local artist to design to paint a mural in the community.
