Classroom Law Project is honored to be a partnering organization with the Multnomah County Courthouse in their Youth Mural Project. The purpose of this project is to engage the youth of Multnomah County, celebrate the opening of the new central courthouse, and create a visual representation of the aspirations for the court system, from the perspective of our young people. Those aspirations will be reflected in a collection of murals that will be displayed as part of the early-October opening of the new central courthouse at least through the end of 2020.
We are now seeking submissions from young artists to represent Classroom Law Project in this installation.
Classroom Law Project Submission Guidelines:
- Open to Multnomah County residents grades K-12.
- Submissions must include “Classroom Law Project” and our logo in the design.
