On April 21, 2025, students from Cherry Hill High School West unveiled a mural at the Jefferson Health Cherry Hill Hospital, located in Cherry Hill, New Jersey. This initiative, spearheaded by nurse manager Rory Levinson, aimed to transform a windowless waiting room into a more inviting space. The project began in Fall 2025, providing students with a valuable learning experience in collaboration and creativity. The mural features seasonal imagery representative of the New Jersey and Philadelphia regions, crafted using acrylic paint, glass mosaics, ceramic tiles, and photo paper. Levinson expressed hope that the mural would help visitors feel refreshed and momentarily distract them from the reasons for their hospital visit. Student Sydney Dunn-Kraus emphasized the importance of community and support that the mural aims to convey.
