“Our Stars Still Shine,” a mural designed to honor the memory of Second Hand Prose (SHP) volunteers who are deceased, will be dedicated on Sunday, August 21, 1-3pm, in the parking area behind the Coronado Public Library on D Avenue.
The wall mural is the result of a partnership with the Coronado School of the Arts (CoSA), and the Friends of the Coronado Library/SHP. SHP Coordinator Sharon Sherman and CoSA art instructor Karrie Jackson worked with students to design and complete the mural.
Most of the volunteers identified on the mural began with the opening of the SHP Gently Used Book Store in October of 2005.
Guest speakers will include Mayor Casey Tanaka; Christian Esquevin, Director of Coronado Library; and Sharon Sherman. Special guests will include Karrie Jackson; Shane Schmeichel, Director of the CoSA program; and Karl Mueller, new Coronado Unified School District Superintendent. Light refreshments will be served.
Guests attending will include relatives, friends, and/ or acquaintances of deceased volunteers and active SHP volunteers.
