RGdIands H.S. MECHA Club to croate diversity mural

The concept of a mural started with students from the Redlands High School MECHA Club exploring for a special activity for their annual Cinco de Mayo celebration. As a result of one of the MECHA members, Fatima Cristerna, viewing a presentation by Don Juan Productions at a Future Leaders Youth camp in Idyllwild, club members visited a show in Los Angeles, and a decision was made by the MECHA Club members that a mural, designed by Juan Gonzalez, would be the ideal project. The realization of creating a mural at Redlands High School, reflecting the overall education process and illustrating the diversity of students attending the high school, was a project that involved a two year planning process. Redlands High School Advisor, Minerva Saldana, was the supporting catalyst for the coordination of the project. The students decided that their involvement in performing many of the tasks Pictured above are Redlands High School MECHA would create the incentive for more direct participation by MECHA members in the eventual completion of members that are participating in the project develop­ the project. ment of a mural at the school.
