"Nature Adventure" transforms the playground walls of PS 176 into a wondrous nature adventure, encouraging the school childrens imaginations to flourish and expand. In creating the work, 18 young artists thought about their community, discussed their ideas, and gathered imagery. The students came up with the adventurous nature theme on their own; they knew exactly what they wanted on their playground walls. The mural team collectively transformed the schools environment with a vibrant example of how nature and art can boost creativity. One student said, It is my favorite place where I can go and play. The mural depicts a landscape and a seascape, highlighting both flora and fauna. Crowning the mural is PS 176s school motto: Believe it! Achieve it!
