Where it started

It began with a group of students and one big idea: Growing Together.

At Hope Academy, 6th through 11th grade students took a mural from first idea to paint on the wall. They chose the theme, picked a Bible verse to anchor it, learned to project and trace their design, and painted it side by side. When the school had to relocate, Cherry finished the wall so their work would be complete. Walls of Hope was born from that experience.

How it works

From blank wall to finished mural, in six steps

1

Dream the theme

Students brainstorm what the wall should say and the elements that matter to them.

2

Choose the message

A Bible verse, or words that fit your school or community.

3

Design together

We sketch and refine the design as a group so every voice is in it.

4

Project & trace

Students learn how muralists scale a design onto a wall with a projector.

5

Paint in small groups

Groups rotate so every student gets real time at the wall, with tasks matched to their age.

6

Finish & unveil

Professional touch-ups, sealing, and a celebration to share the finished wall.
