Two Chiles High School seniors, Arden Seaquist, left, and Kaitlyn Grauer designed a mural for DeSoto Trail Elementary School in partnership with KCCI. The mural was unveiled to the fifth grade students on Wednesday afternoon, May 13, 2026.
A colorful new mural will now greet visitors at DeSoto Trail Elementary, celebrating school pride and reminding students: "Once a trailblazer, always a trailblazer."
Murals in Tallahassee are drawing visitors and boosting business. KCCI is building on the project's momentum with a free public artist panel next Tuesday. The event will offer a chance to connect with the The Stacks.
Tallahassee is becoming recognized for its thriving and deeply connected arts community. Organizations like COCA, LeMoyne Arts, and KCCI are central to the city's cultural and economic vitality.
Artists begin painting large-scale shipping container murals at The Stacks to create a new public art gallery at SoMo Walls, with all murals expected to be completed by Memorial Day.
