West Orange Times & Observer

The First Academy middle and high school fine arts students have been hard at work creating unique murals in West Orange.

Upper school visual arts students in TFA’s Chapter of National Art Honor Society came together after being invited by Vintage Realty to paint its office wall in downtown Windermere. The students spent a week transferring the cheerful holiday image to the twelve-foot-high wall.

The school's National Junior Honor Society Chapter members also recently painted a mural. The mural is located on TFA’s campus, outside of the new kitchen and dining space.

TFA will be hosting its Happy Holidays Open House Admissions Event for Prospective Families, coming up on Tuesday, Dec. 7. The event will give Central Florida families an opportunity to learn more about the school and its community.

Keep an eye out for an extended version of this story, coming later this week, in our print paper!
