Maria Arroyo's Nature Dream Windows was selected from an open call to artists across the tri-counties as part of the annual Earth Day Mural project of the Museum of Contemporary Art Santa Barbara.

In two weeks of tireless effort, Maria's vision was brought to life by members of the Slingshot Team, Maria and a number of Slingshot artists, along with an extended community of helpers. Throughout which, the MCASB provided crucial support and facilitation.

We are immensely grateful to the members of the selection committee for their belief in Maria's talents and for extending this platform to Maria to leave her mark on downtown Santa Barbara for years to come.
