The First CCC Mural
Intern projects and events have always been the backbone of Center community building and events. Over the years Interns have done everything from coloring books, zines, photo projects, blogs, to name only a few. In 2001 Delia Pacheco, as her Student Initiated Project (SIP), put together the first CCC mural. The mural was conceived, designed, and painted for community by community (Jennifer and Olympia painting) and the finished product are featured here. The mural is alive and well our Price Center location and will make its triumphant return during 20 year anniversary activities. Thank you Delia and all those community members to worked on the project. The art we make together, in community, is a big piece of the Centers history and impact. View more photos here
