CHECK IT OUT! Cascade Elementary School in Marysville WA has a new mural. Evan Reed, the Unit Director of the Marysville Boys and Girls Club and the Executive Director of the non-profit Bunker Arts Collective, sought private funding through donors and grants to provide murals to brighten up our community. Our new colorful mural was painted and designed by artist Abby Kizziar of Mukilteo. Cascade Elementary School was selected because we are one of the few schools marked to close. Donating the new mural serves as a purpose to our community that we are seen and cherished.
