Hastings Elementary Mural Project

In 2004, as part of a UBC Learning Exchange Community Service Learning Project, Zeigler worked with fourteen third and fourth-year Visual Arts students over five weeks on the collaborative design and execution of a 13' x 40' (396 x 1219 cm) mural for the Hastings Elementary Community School, in the inner-city of Vancouver.   An additional six students from various UBC faculties and approximately twenty-five Hastings Elementary students also assisted in painting the mural, which focused thematically on notions of health and wellness.
