Deer Park High School students from Rebecca Yackel’s mural painting course recently had the exciting opportunity to collaborate on a community mural project at Venetian Shores for the Town of Babylon. Inspired by the natural beauty of the waterfront, students Antonietta Cafisco and Jayna Singh took the lead in designing a vibrant, beach-themed mural to bring joy to the beach staff.
With the support and teamwork of the entire class, the mural was completed in just one day, a true testament to the students’ dedication and hard work. This hands-on experience allowed students to apply artistic techniques in a real-world setting while strengthening their skills in problem-solving and community engagement. The completed mural now serves as a welcoming and colorful addition to Venetian Shores, reflecting both the spirit of the Town of Babylon and the creativity of Deer Park’s students.
“We are incredibly proud of their efforts and grateful for the opportunity to contribute something meaningful to the community,” Yackel said.
