Awesome Martin Luther King Mural

Kennydale Elementary School
I blogged about Kennydale Elementary’s Martin Luther King Jr. mural the other day, and went to go see it last night.
I must say, I’m really impressed with what these elementary kids did.
This mural is made of several small pieces of paper carefully cut out and glued. I’m going to talk to the art docent who helped Ms. Luder’s kids put it together for a short story in the paper.
Around the mural are short “I have a dream” speaches by the kids. A few talked about not smoking cigarrettes, polution and illness.
