Cincinnati College Preparatory Academy


Back in February of this year, we took on the daunting task of painting an elementary School Gymnasium. This gym is located at the previously occupied Bramble Elementary, which has now been converted to Cincinnati College Preparatory Academy-East.


This particular work was painted over a 6 week period. The majority was completed with Montana94 aerosols with the only exception being the stone and tile work which was achieved with standard latex paints. The theme of a jungle was suggested based on a previous space in which they've had a jungle painted in an existing gymnasium. CCPA's mascot is the Lion. Considering the phrase that the "Lion is the king of the jungle"- We made the Lion a deity like statue, versus the option of an actual lion prowling the jungle floor.

CCPA schools have truly impressed us in terms of the caliber of students they graduate and the operation of the schools themselves. We were honored to be asked to do this work for their newest location and are in the process on other spaces within their schools "as we speak".
