By Art for the Eagles

Los Altos High seeks an artist to paint a mural and other art work on the walls of the large gym at the high school. When the gym was updated a few years ago, it was also repainted and looks plain and lacks spirit, according to Los Altos athletic director Monica Lodge. Coaches and students have some idea what they would like to see for the walls but the school needs someone capable of doing the painting. For more information, call Lodge at 960-8857 or e-mail her at monica.lodge@mvla.net.
