Eighth-graders make mark with murals, with help from Disney artist

With each snip of the scissors, and with every placement of every paper cutout, eighth-graders at East Grand Rapids Middle School are making their mark on their community.

Holly Lampen’s art students are closing in on completion of a yearlong project to design and place three similarly themed murals — one for the middle-school hallway, and two for the Teen Room walls at the Kent District Library East Grand Rapids branch. The hallway mural is already on display, as is one of the two at the library. Students are just wrapping up the third mural now, hoping to see it installed at the library sometime in June.
