Painting of Martin Luther King Jr

New Art in the Union

The first piece of student artwork is up in the Student Union.

The piece was created by accounting junior Tina Yari for the 2019 Martin Luther King Jr. breakfast celebration.

Guests were invited to place their paint-dipped thumbprints along the border of the canvas as a symbol of building on King’s dream.
