LA HABRA

Young artists will unveil their masterpiece--a 48-foot-wide mural--at a ceremony at 10 a.m. Friday. More than a dozen La Habra sixth-grade students ditched their normal Saturday morning activities for five weeks to paint the six-panel mural. District artist-in-residence Mary Schultz helped oversee the project, which will hang on a wall across the street from the Children’s Museum at La Habra on Euclid Street. The project was designed to give students experience with community services and art, as well as to beautify the city, said Gail Reed, La Habra City School District’s director of curriculum and bilingual education.
