Study for New Mural

After considering the responses to the student questionnaire for the new mural to be created by ECHS students, it was decided that two panels would be created that would bring the history portrayed in the mural up to the present. The following images show the study for the new mural. Click on thumbnails to see larger views.
The first panel depicts World War II, Hiroshima, the establishment of the United Nations, mankind's first step on the moon, and the Civil Rights struggle.
The second panel shows Miles Davis, Muhammad Ali, Three Mile Island, the Aids Quilt, the tearing down of the Berlin Wall, the Internet, the New York City Skyline, and an Evander Childs High School classroom.
