Message from the Co-Directors

Brilliant blue mural on a tan brick building of a Black doctor/nurse with a light blue mask on. She is illuminated by a yellow halo. Her scrubs are blue. Her hair is in pink curlers. The mural is signed "Thank you by M. Tony Peralta." A sidewalk sits in frame snow on either side.
