AADAP Mural with a mission: keep kids out of LA gangs

AADAP montage copy, originally uploaded by Mic N.

This mural encourages kids to reach for their dreams through higher education. AADAP counselors believe that a successful life is the best way to keep kids out of gangs.

This Photo montage was created for the AADAP Rice Paper magazine story which told Angelenos about the amazing 16' tall x 44' wide Dream mural created by Michelle Nosco and her AADAP Assistants. See NoscoFineArt.com for more info.

When the mural was complete the students were asked what they wanted to do when they grow up. One student in particular demonstrated ability in drawing perspective when working on the LA skyline (far left in mural). His answer was that he would like to become an architect. Hopefully, working on this mural is a stepping stone towards attaining that goal.
