A 16 x 37 foot mural in the new Hill Central school cafeteria in New Haven. It is a mural that depicts a community celebrating the fruits of their labor, specifically in gardening, music, dance, art and family. A community united in the celebration of its cultural diversity makes for a healthier and safer society. Just like fresh vegetables are an integral part of a great salad, so is a diverse multi-faceted people to a thriving community.
