The CFS Pavilion Mural was painted as a "mini-session" project in 1982 (1981? 1983?) by a small group of Carolina Friends School Upper School students. The group included:

  • Matthew Henry (a trompe l'oeil of a doorway, which unfortunately got painted over a few years later by an unknown person or persons before I could get a photo of it)
  • me (weird unfinished brown tower-thing being sucked into the black hole)
  • Jenny Hall (dragon)
  • Linda Griffin (blue-hat girl with owl),
  • Charlotte Denny (from New Zealand -- the Kiwi is hers; we jokingly called it "the dragon turd" or "the dragon dropping")
  • ...and I have to check about the one or two others.

It was done for a mini-session project in 1982 (possibly 1981). I thought we were going to come back later and finish it... (I think the supervising teacher's name was Ellen, but I'm not quite sure; time to rifle through old yearbooks).

2007-06-18 Update: the mural finally got painted over for real; the whole "Quakerdome" is now a uniform beige. I'm kind of sad that nobody saw fit to warn us, so we could get any last photos (I didn't think to take an overall photo, as I was concentrating on the details), but I suppose that's to be expected.
