Artist and muralist Tom Christopher worked with art students from the Escuela de Artes Plásticas y Diseño to create more than 4,000 square feet of murals celebrating the working men and women of Puerto Rico.
Their ideas follow the tradition of Thomas Hart Benton, the WPA artists
and Mexican muralists like Diego Rivera who portrayed the proletarian struggle and pride of working men and women. Tom and the students developed and painted the murals in a working studio on Bahia Plaza in San Juan.
