Bay Area Students Create Artwork To Stand Against Hate

MILL VALLEY, CA — Students have created artwork that can now be seen on the corner of an intersection in Mill Valley that shares the message “Mill Valley Stands United Against Hate.”

On the corner of Camino Alto and East Blithedale Avenue, utility boxes have been rewrapped with artwork created by student artists Isla Robinson, Elizabeth Lieginger, and Masey Baker.

This project was part of Mill Valley’s "United Against Hate” week, which is a nationwide movement aimed at inspiring local communities to confront implicit biases that threaten safety, inclusion, and respect, according to the City of Mill Valley website.

As part of the UAH week, Mill Valley Middle School sixth graders created an art project titled "United by Love" under the guidance of art teacher Kim Tran and librarian Amy Kaufman. Elementary students collaborated on "MVSD is United Against Hate," led by art teachers Bethany Womack, Nancy Bloch, Katherine Hanson, and Danny Marsh.
