Description
Jo Mora created the cement bas relief, entitled “Theater Through the Ages,” in 1937 for the exterior of the school auditorium then under construction. The sculpture was funded by the WPA Federal Art Project.
He also created a 2′ by 2’6″ aluminum bas relief for the interior of the auditorium entitled “The Spirit of Music.”
