“Ruch Outdoor Community School needed a face lift. So principal Julie Barry and Assistant Principal Ryan King decided to hire local artists to create stunning murals along the walls and breezeways outside the classrooms, along walk ways and on the outdoor patio. Murals celebrating the Applegate Watershed. Murals of animals and of butterflies. Murals that give the students a unique place to call home, and even a place to soar.” -Mail Tribune
