Painting Days

After all this planning and preparing, we finally get to paint!

We spent:

  • 6/21: 1 full day (8 am to 3:30 pm) priming the boards and setting up the work area in the garage and driveway of Escuela Verde.
  • 6/22 and 6/27: 2 full days (8 am to 3:30 pm) painting with the students.
  • 6/28: 1 full day (8 am to 7:30 pm) painting with the community.
