A mural inspired by student artwork will debut at Kingwood High School on May 13.

To look closer

The art of KHS students Brielyn Dreyling and Malik Fanning inspired muralist Tara Bradley, according to a May 9 email from Humble ISD officials. The KHS mural is one of 11 created at schools in the Greater Houston area by the 2024 College Football Playoff National Championship Host Committee.
