Renovation projects to impact services at multiple library locations beginning May 11. More information.
Little by little, UK’s newest art piece is nearing completion.
Over three days last week, students passing through William T. Young Library stopped to contribute a few brushstrokes to a paint-by-number mural depicting the library on a lovely fall day.
A timelapse video recorded by the Student Media Depot shows the scene coming slowly to life, one block of color at a time.
As reported by the Kentucky Kernel, the experience was a soothing study break and an opportunity to contribute to a work that will soon find a permanent home on campus.
If you didn’t get a chance to make your mark at Young, the final touches will be added to the mural at the Student Activity Board’s Crunch Brunch event on Wednesday, Dec. 6 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at the Gatton Student Center.
As for where the mural will one day proudly hang? We may be a little biased, but we think it ought to live here at Young. Who doesn’t love a picture of a building hanging inside the building it depicts? We promise we won’t cover up Storm Cat.
