Art as a Form of Resistance Mural Event

Local Artist Thomasina Top Bear is going to create a 5’x5’ community-engaged polytab mural in our very own Peters Hall! 

This design will be created by Top Bear using the themes Equity, Community of Belonging, Integrity, Well-Being and Balance, Growth and Learning, Inclusivity and Innovation. 

How can I participate?

We need 25 members of the SSW community to each color a piece of a mural that will be in the hallway in Peters Hall. We’re looking for 18 students and 7 faculty and staff members. 

Each participant will receive a 1’x1’ polytab square of the mural to paint with written instructions and assistance from the artist to guide everyone through the process. Thomasina Top Bear will then assemble the individual pieces like a puzzle and do small touch-ups to create a larger mural.

Interested? Fill out the request to participate form, and we will respond with all the details so that we can come together and make something beautiful!

Please note: The time of the event has not been finalized, but we wanted to post the event to encourage registration for participation in the mural. All members of the School of Social Work community are welcome to the attend the event, and participation in the creation of the mural is not required.
