Carla Majczan, an accomplished art teacher from Bethlehem, has been chosen to lead a project that will result in a stunning mural at the new Da Vinci Science Center in downtown Allentown. With the help of 300 students from Lehigh Valley Children’s Centers, Carla will create, design and paint a 120-foot long mural that will adorn the wall of the Science Center.
Carla developed lesson plans for art and science that inspired students to create art and designs based on those plans. After sorting through boxes of student artwork and ideas, Carla finalized the mural design based on the children’s drawings. The students will begin painting the mural at the Judith Chase Early Learning Center gym on Chew Street. The finished mural will be installed at the new Da Vinci Science Center in late May or early June.
The Science Center is set to open on May 22nd, showcasing not only the colorful and imaginative artwork created by local students under Carla’s guidance but also state-of-the-art exhibits and interactive displays that are sure to captivate visitors of all ages. This collaboration between local artists and students is a testament to the power of creativity and community involvement in shaping our future.
