SA/VS students Michael Lozovoy, Emma Wagner and Thomas Arney pose in front of the completed mural.
“We knew we wanted to do a mural project and discussed it early on in the semester. We scouted some locations that were offered to us, and continued looking. Aaron Abbott (a Lexington digital design media senior) noticed this wall on Emmaline Lane on his way to school one day, and realized it was a great location for our mural and he actually knows the owner! It was really Aaron s connection to Mr. Queen that got us this great location,” said Lee Ann Paynter, lecturer in digital media foundations and photography.
