The badge earner worked on a large scale public art work with other young artists and used his/her skills to collaborate on the piece. The lead artist provided a guide to the student as a way to visual the piece, and the student used their own artistic ability to finalize the artwork with peers. The lead artist chose the name "Visual Jazz Master" as a reference to a jazz band, where each musician will work from a sheet of music but will improvise their own renditions of the song to create a new musical piece as a full jazz band. The students learned to be comfortable in their own making by creating sketches and draft paintings of the public art piece. The student then collaborated with peer artists to design and paint on the walls of the public art piece. The final public work is recognized by the community as a collaborate piece between many young artists, and is a part of the student's own portfolio.
