Description

Painted particle board sign for the Austine School. The sign is painted blue over yellow and reads "Welcome to Austine" in black stylized print across the top with the school's tri-mountain insignia in white behind the center. Below the black text is the same phrase in sign language, with each hand painted bright white with lighter black lines for finger and hand position and definition, with arrows pointing in various directions to signify how one's hands should move when signing the letters. There are ten holes drilled around the sides to hang the sign up--four each on the top and bottom edges and one each at the center of each lateral side. The sign is inscribed, "Mural Created By Jaclyn. FP, Steven. C, and Wayne. T Spring 2003"
