The ribbon cutting to celebrate the completion of the mural tunnel art project.

The tunnel at the Pearce Mill Trail has a new look. Twenty-five Pine-Richland students worked to complete their mural tunnel project with the help of donations from five community organizations. Pine-Richland School District, Township of Pine, Rich-Mar Rotary, Pine-Richland Opportunities Fund, and Friends of Pine Community Parks sponsored the project.

The murals are now on display. It took 37 hours for the students to paint the mural panels. K-12 art teacher and department chair Mary Anne Andreassi supervised the project.

The following students contributed their time and effort to see this mural project completed:
