Clippers Create A Masterpiece for Bay Ridge!
On Tuesday, June 12, Xaverian had the honor of unveiling the mural that they painted under the 69th Street Overpass in partnership with the Department of Transportation. Over the course of a three-week period, the Xaverian art teachers, Mr. Pat Mathews, Mr. John Hendrick, and Ms. JoAnna Mesiti, along with the assistance of Xaverian art students transformed the space with a dynamic, colorful mural.
The mural titled, “Diversity,” explores the relationships between old and new, constancy and rejuvenation, and harmony and variety. The architectural backdrop represents the history of Brooklyn, anchored in its brownstones and row houses, while the addition of the colorful sea life, represent the continuous flow of various cultures and peoples that make Brooklyn their home.
