A new mural will soon be completed in Ruth Leverton Hall on East Campus. The mural wraps around the whole first floor of Leverton in living color. It was drawn and painted freehand, which has been of great interest to NHS faculty, staff and students. People in the building are interested in the daily progress of the mural, and ask many questions of the artist, who is now accustomed to it. Lincoln-based Mural Mural Graphics designed the project.
