From the walls of downtown buildings, to sports arenas and convention centers, colorful murals can be found in numerous places
But last Sunday afternoon, a beautiful four-paneled mural was unveiled at a most appropriate site — the Performing Arts Center on the campus of West Forsyth High School.
The work of art was a gift from the members of the school’s National Art Honor Society. “I am so proud of these students for all of their dedication to this project,” said West Forsyth art teacher Betti Longinotti, who hosted a reception for the students, faculty and administration to celebrate a year of hard work, time and energy. “These kids worked every Tuesday and Thursday to get this completed.”
Longinotti mentioned that the students came up with the idea for the PAC project after completing a mural at Forsyth Hospital a year earlier.

The mural, which combines visuals related to art and music, was designed by former West students Mia Mulic and Rebekah Minkiewicz..
