The Merrill Moat is an interactive community art project that goes back the earliest days of the college. It is a celebration of the ideas, cultures, voices, and values of the Merrill community – a visual representation of their diversity and creativity.
Every Merrill student has the opportunity to leave his or her mark, literally, on the Moat. Each year there is a vote, in which the Merrill community selects 10 murals to be removed. These murals are replaced by new designs created by Merrill Students.
