Students from across the East End collaborated for East End Arts’ MLK Portrait Project in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Four different portraits, each containing 16 panels, were created as a unique images of Dr. King. The project was inspired by the work of East End Arts teacher Kenneth Jackson.
The project is “a way to celebrate the words of MLK by working together in unity, each creating an individual part, that ultimately becomes whole. Each panel style is different, yet they all fit together.”
