Community-Based Mural Project: Rivers

COME PAINT WITH US!

July 19th through 23rd

You are invited to participate in Riversthe Yale & Springfield Avenue Corner Mural Project conceptualized by local artists Barbara M. Bickart (Fire in the Belly Artmaking) and Andrew Dean, together with 15 of our young local artists. This project is sponsored by the Springfield Avenue Partnership through the Neighborhood Preservation Program!

Rivers is a community-based, public art project open to participants 5 years & older, who are interested in adding their voice through color, line & shape to this collaborative painting project, facilitated on-site by Barbara M. Bickart and co-facilitators Jennifer McClory & Katey Darago.

Sign Up to add your voice by painting a “doodle” design of your own to this collaborative mural OR one that we give you! Either way, please come on out to celebrate the vibrancy of this amazing community by spending some time painting together and visiting. Making art is always about starting a conversation. Come celebrate who we are and take up some colorful space of your own inside the “banks” of this River we’ll be creating to “flow” across the black top!

*Please sign up for one or more slots and tell us the size of your group under “quantity”. Thank you!
