Community mural

Bay Area muralist Susan Cervantes and members of Precita Eyes—including Elaine Chu, pictured here—are working with Northeastern students to design and paint a mural for the Latino/a Student Cultural Center. The design is based on community/student input, rather than one specific artist’s vision. Photo by Matthew Modoono/Northeastern University
