“Paws Up” – brought to you by the PVM Wellness Committee

Today we want to acknowledge community mural artist Tia Richardson for her beautiful mural design for our college and her creative direction and guidance that has enabled and empowered members of our PVM community to contribute their own wonderful work to the 2024 PVM Mural Project. The mural really is an inspiring portrayal of our college’s vision of the caring relationships that exist between humans and animals and what those connections look like across the globe. A PVM staff member shared, “I’ve admired how Tia’s been so welcoming and encouraging with people as they have come forward to pick up a paint brush and paint and participate in the mural project.” 

Fostering a healthy work environment involves expressing appreciation and gratitude. Is there someone at PVM you would like to acknowledge today? It’s easy to make a Paws Up submission – just follow this link. Submissions are published anonymously and may be edited for length. Any PVM staff, faculty, student, or team may be nominated by anyone in our college. For more information, visit the PVM Wellness Committee website.
