The mural, which will feature salmon and a watershed pollution prevention theme, will be painted by more than 60 artists during the first two weekends of September
VANCOUVER – Clark County Public Works is partnering with community members to paint a mural on the retaining wall on the north side of Northeast 117th Street, just west of Northeast Highway 99 and across from Klineline Pond/Salmon Creek Regional Park.
The mural, which will feature salmon and a watershed pollution prevention theme, will be painted by more than 60 artists during the first two weekends of September (Saturday, Sept. 6; Sunday, Sept. 7; Saturday, Sept. 13 and Sunday, Sept. 14).
Volunteers are needed to help manage painting supplies and wastewater, set up and clean the project area, provide support to artists (including drinking water, tools, and supplies), and more. Volunteer shifts are approximately three to four hours long, beginning at 7:30 a.m. each day. Volunteers may sign up for multiple shifts and/or multiple days.
Volunteers must be able to lift and carry up to 50 pounds and walk up and down a sloped area. Due to the project’s location along a busy road, volunteers must be 18 years old or older. Volunteers can register for specific tasks and shifts at clark.wa.gov/public-works/volunteer. Contact the volunteer program coordinator, Cindy Gonzalez, at cindy.gonzalez@clark.wa.gov or (564) 397-1679 with questions.
