Rachna Rikhye's ESOL class at Piney Branch Elementary school dove into making shapes in clay to be incorporated in to the mural, with the help of Alice Sims and Stephanie Ney.
Designs were inspired by traditional designs and patterns and will be used around doorways as welcoming elements.
This project is being lead by the local nonprofit Art For The People in conjunction with The City of Takoma Park & the Takoma Park Foundation of the Montgomery County Community Foundation.
