Please join the Chugach National Forest, Alaska Geographic, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association, Credit Union 1, the Anchorage Community Land Trust, Rasmuson Foundation, the Parks & Recreation Department and the Anchorage Park Foundation for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
We will kick off the 2010 Arts in the Parks program in Mountain View with a multi-artist, Anchorage-wide, community mural painting event called “Art Starts in the Parks and Flows to the Forest.” Nationally-recognized artist Wyland will lead more than 300 kids and families in painting murals of forests, oceans and parks for installation in Mountain View and around Anchorage.
Activities for all ages include:
- Paint murals with Wyland and Anchorage schoolchildren
- Make spectacular sand castles with local artist Jen Jolliff
- Listen to inspiring songs from local folksinger Amy Lou Hettinger
