This year, French Club has been leading an ongoing multi-club effort to plan and create a multicultural mural near the World Language Lab, club co-president and senior Rosa Golchin said.
Golchin said that club officers floated the idea of creating a mural at an early French Club meeting. After French Club adviser and French teacher Elaine Haggerty told club members that former principal Paul Robinson had envisioned having a multicultural mural, the club expanded the project to include the Spanish and Chinese Clubs.
So far, the clubs’ officers have met to discuss the design of the mural, which will go in front of Spanish teacher Sarah Voorhees’s room, Room 601. In addition, each club has curated a collection of images, including religious symbols and cultural icons, that they would like to see on the mural, according to Golchin.
“In the coming weeks, we will combine our visions for the mural into a sketch, seek administrator approval [and] gather materials,” Golchin said.
