This is the 11th year of The Mimbres Region Arts Council's Youth Mural Camp. The Mural Camp will run from Monday, July 10 through Friday, July 21. This year's mural camp takes place at the Silver City Public Library: campers will also work upstairs at Leyba & Ingalls ARTS.

Melanie Zipin, Lead Artist and Assistant Erika Burleigh will lead the camp this year. Camp participants will design, make tiles, and mosaic a 40 foot wall on Cooper Street in front of the library. Mural Campers will also work on other creative activities as well as working on the mural. This year's craft activities will be just as enticing as last year's. Craft activities may include silk screening, mono printing, painting on ceramic items and more.
