Alameda School or Art and Design update

We recently met with Alameda School of Art and Design, on behalf of Graffiti Foundation, and went over specifics. Mr. DeLuna is the teacher we are in contact with and his overall goal is to have his kids create individual pieces of art that will cover three walls of the school, creating a mural. We have offered to assist him in anyway possible. Moreover, Mr. DeLuna is in the process of introducing his pupils to what it takes to create a mural. He hopes that the students will pick a theme that will tie into the community. He estimates that the mural will not be done until the beginning of May. With that said, it has become apparent that this venture will continue on way past our final group presentation that is coming up, which is fine with all of us ( Kim, Erik, Stephen, Armando). We hope to solidify a strong relationship between the Alameda School of Art and Design and Graffiti Foundation. Aside from creating a calendar with the students artwork that will be used for the mural, it has been proposed to create a possible Graffiti Foundation chapter, which will be the first of it's kind. This will engage the teenage artists attending this school to start thinking about the future and art as a profession/business. Davin would love to see this chapter established and is very willing to oversee it once it gets started. We will be following up with Alameda school of Art and Design on April 15th. ....Good quote that was found; "If you care at all, you'll get some results.
