California faces a drought that affects its water resources now and potentially in the future. Water levels in Hetch Hetchy are at historically low levels. At George Peabody Elementary School the students' curriculum includes studying natural resources, including how water flows from its source to end users. To illustrate these concepts Precita Eyes will lead a mural workshop to engage the students in illustrating their ideas to raise awareness of water conservation in a mural entitled "Please Respect the Water in San Francisco." The mural features animals living near the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir, and wildlife that lives in the Bay Area. It also show the water route from the reservoir to our city and how we use our water in our daily lives. As for the mural process, the students will create the imagery, design the composition, grid the wall, prime it and paint their design.
