Volunteers who are working to restore a mural in the Town of Superior.

Restoration work began on the Mural on Lobb Ave. The original Mural was painted in the late 90’s by Superior students under the guidance of Gloria Arvizu-Thompson. Time and weather has taken its toll on the mural. Local artist Marilee Lasch started a project to repair the mural. She got in contact with one of the original artists on the mural, former Superior student Javier Gomez. Javier is now a tattoo artist  at Inkbomb tattoos, but he also teaches art classes at the local school. Javier carried on in the tradition of his mentor and brought a group of Superior students to help work repairing the mural. Javier, the students, Marilee and a handful of volunteers began working on the mural this week.

Meanwhile, the mural on the front of the Superior Sun building was recently completed. The artists were Deb Sears and Jimmy Alvarado. Many thanks to all the artists brightening up our town!
