Murals
Beyond its art onsite, IAS has partnered with local organizations and artists to guide children and youth in creating art in the community. IAS programs have produced impressive mural projects, some of which can still be appreciated around town.
IAS Community Mural Projects
2019 Youth Mural Project
Through partnership with Artolution, West Bloomington Revitalization Project, the City of Bloomington, and BCAI Cultural Arts and Humanities, IAS created the Youth Mural Project for local youth to explore issues related to their lives and community, learn about muralism, and envision, design and paint their own community mural. Dozens of incredibly talented children and youth spent four days in the blazing sun to produce this amazing mural that can now be seen at Market Street and Morris Avenue in Bloomington. Check it out!
Summer Arts Exposure 2019
Through partnership with BCAI Arts’ summer immersion programs, IAS helped children and youth create this vibrant and intentional three-piece mural that was on display at the Sirius Roasters Coffee Hound in Normal on the ISU campus.
