Math & Material Science

Discover how to design and paint murals, no art experience needed. Students will calculate the needed materials and costs to complete large-scale murals using basic math skills, and explore how various types of paints adhere to different surfaces. Together we will investigate how to obtain permission and permits for final mural placement, discuss funding and grants, methods for scaling up images, and how to use technology to enhance designs. Each student will explore techniques for creating a sample mural to take home.
