Graduate Students Complete Mural at CSU Spur Campus During CRUSH Walls Event

A group of graduate student artists from Colorado State University successfully completed its mural on a building that will adjoin the future CSU Spur campus as part of CRUSH Walls, a Denver street art festival held Sept. 14-20.
