Add your touch to the Mural at the Grange Tonight August 13

Don’t miss your chance to say that you helped paint the Santa Clara Mural. The Mural at the Irving Grange should be completed by the end of August, so you don’t have many opportunities left to show off your artistry.

Mural painting is every Tuesday and Thursday from 4-6 pm. You’ll be given all the material and help you could ever need. The grange is located at the 1011 Irvington Drive.
