In October of 2018 Hamilton Glass, Richmond Artist and Muralist, held a three-day workshop with 15 student artists at JRJDC to brainstorm and conceptualize a mural project for the JRJDC gym. Prior to this, Mr. Glass visited and met with the leadership at JRJDC to familiarize himself with the facility and its mission.By the end of the three-day workshop, the student artists had determined the concept and communicated their overall design wishes to Mr. Glass. He, in turn, took the artists’ concept and designed a mural for one wall in the gymnasium. The mural design was submitted and approved by the JRJDC leadership and the painting was scheduled. During the last week of November, Mr. Glass transferred the design to the gym wall and then worked with student artists to complete the mural. The mural was completed on Friday, November 30.
