IIDA SoCal Community participated in an outreach event at the San Diego Rescue Mission (SDRM) led by ArtReach. ArtReach led a group of IIDA SoCal & SDRM volunteers in the painting of a 75 foot long mural along the rooftop playground and common area at the San Diego Rescue Mission. It was designed by the talented muralist Ian Stiles-Mikl. The mural's nature theme reflects safety, peace, transition, faith, resilience, community and the overcoming of hardships. The night to day theme symbolizes that there are always brighter days ahead, no matter how dark the night feels. SDRM residents and staff have been overjoyed and uplifted by the mural results! Thank you to Sherwin-Williams for donating the paint and to all the volunteers who helped make it happen!
We just wrapped up our latest project at the rooftop playground and common area at San Diego Rescue Mission! It was a hot and sunny week, but we got creative and cast shadows on the wall in order to see which areas needed touch-ups at the end.☀️ Huge shout out to all the amazing volunteers who live at San Diego Rescue Mission, especially Donald! The help we received was invaluable. Thanks to Sherwin-Williams for the generous paint donation and to our fantastic mural team! Despite the challenges from the sun, we completed this massive 77ft project in under one week!! Stay tuned for photos of this finished mural 🎨 Mural designed by Ian Stiles-Mikl #artreachmuralprogram #artreachsd #sandiegomurals #artsnonprofit #sandiegononprofit #communitymural
