Lookout Valley Elementary Receives New Hallway Murals

  • Friday, June 30, 2017

Gale Hinton is back at Lookout Valley Elementary School creating murals for the students.

One hall way is about “greatness begins here” and “follow your dreams”  which features several individuals, some from Chattanooga, who have done great things and can be an inspiration to the children. Images include Senator Bob Corker, Dr. Ben Carson, Tamara Jernigan, Irvine Grote, Ed Westcott, Margaret Vaughn, S. David Freeman, Bessie Smith, as well as Harriet Tubman, Michelangelo and Albert Einstein. This hallway is complete. 

The other hallway is about imagination and features quotes and pictures of characters from the Wizard of Oz. Ms. Hinton began this hallway Friday and will complete it Saturday. 

Ms. Hinton is the artist who painted the Lookout Valley Elementary School Ben Carson Reading Room and lobby, as well as a mural in the cafeteria many years ago. She has also painted many murals for TC Thompson Children’s Hospital.
