"Uplifting Tomorrow's Leaders," DMSF featured on
​Wintrust Mural Building

DMSF is proud to announce the display of the “Uplifting Tomorrow’s Leaders” artwork that is featured on the Wintrust Mural Building. Located alongside one of the busiest highways in the U.S., the Kennedy Expressway, the DMSF mural will be visible to thousands of Chicagoland commuters from November 16th through December 31st.

Thanks to the generous donation from Wintrust Financial Corporation, DMSF commissioned Karen Spears, creative entrepreneur and designer, and an alumna of DMSF, to lead the design of the mural.

The design is a nod to all those who DMSF serves: young people with big dreams and high potential to achieve great things, taking charge of their lives to pursue a rigorous education.

​DMSF is ever present to uplift them on that journey.
