The Discover Mural in Manistique Michigan was created by The Power of Words Project: a creative initiative of the Svelata Foundation in partnership with Schoolcraft Tourism and Commerce and Lake Effect Community Arts Center in Manistique. This Video is a photographic document of it's creation from July 7 - August 6, 2018.

The Power of Words Project is a humanitarian mural campaign that brings the Power of Words to life with transformative works of public art. Award winning artist Mia Tavonatti collaborates with schools, downtown development authorities, local arts organizations, or whole cities to make these works possible. The Discover Mural in Manistique was painted by 4 members of Mia's professional team, 4 local grant artists, and 3 local student artists. It is the largest mural in Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
