thereby public art becomes a tool for community engagement in a common spirit,
through urban revitalization and beautification.
We do this by:

-
Supporting artists and artisans in sharing their talents and experiences with youth and communities in Cleveland.
-
Developing sustainable partnerships with community organizations in order to create murals that reflect the community's culture, history, and vision.
