The Kansas State Capitol Building in Topeka is searching for an artist to paint a new mural. According to Kansas Representative Elaine Bowers, the mural will depict Brown v. the Topeka Board of Education.

This is a national search, although Representative Bowers is hoping to see submissions from artists in North Central Kansas.

If you are interested in applying, please visit Salina Journal News. The deadline is May 1, 2012.

Good luck,
