The Wyoming Wolves are spreading their artistic purple flair across town.
Local businesses are showcasing the art of Wyoming High School students as part of a new program, “Paint the Town Purple.”
Ten National Arts Honor Society students created two-dimensional pieces for the project, with business representatives paying $100 to hang the art at their business for one year. Proceeds will support National Arts Honor Society materials and field trips.
“When people come into these businesses and see the artwork, we automatically get a little bit of recognition. The students get recognized,” said art teacher Robyn Higley.
Artist Aliyah Rivera said the community support is appreciated. “It’s really nice that we found businesses that want to have student art portrayed,” she said.
