The relief art is like a mural but raised off of a brick wall, at least that's what I think it was. After the relief mural was made, brick stripes were added to give the illusion of a brick wall popping out. The relief art features various aspects of art including music, painting, drawing, the Olney & B Avenue sign post, the Love sculpture and a bunch of kids dancing around. It was one of my favorite pieces of art I have discovered in our schools. I was attending a calculator workshop here for three days when I first saw it.
