Alberto, I just wanted to let you know that there was a segment on the news that made reference to your mural project in Philadelphia. Kansas City is looking in to doing some murals in the city, to encourage graffiti and tag artists to work on murals instead. I am going to try to get hold of Mr. Reas, the person they interviewed about the project, to see if our school can get involved.

Hey, thanks Barbara. I'm really excited about our mural project. I can't wait to get back to school to continue working on it. I just found out that we now have our sponsor, so raising the money won't be much of an issue any longer. And now that we have an image that's only awaiting final approval from the staff and students, I think we may get this completed by the end of this school year. I want to film the entire project as well. I’ve seen some time-lapse video of murals being created and I think those are just great. I’m going to see if I can get the principal on board with that. Well, talk to you soon.
