Daily News | Local artist, educators praise ‘Abbott Elementary’s Mural Arts episode
On Wednesday’s episode, titled “Mural Arts,” the school’s history teacher Jacob Hill, played by Chris Perfetti, secures a visit from a representative of Mural Arts who is looking to work with students on a painting that reflects the legacy of the school.
In the latest episode, Jacob hopes his students will honor Philly legends John Coltrane or Will Smith. Instead, they want to commemorate the characters in a sock-puppet TV show. An artistic tug-of-war ensues, but by the end of the 21-minute program, the loveably awkward educator caves in and gives the children the creative reins.
“When you go into a community, you listen to everybody that’s going to be impacted by the mural… in order to make clear that you’re really listening to what the community wants,” she said. “It’s allowing yourself to dream about the possibilities for something else… but also highlighting and celebrating community members.”
