Over 120 youth ages 12-18 gathered on January 16th to create large scale, city wide, community based, art and social justice projects.
Activities included:
- Portable murals let by local aerosol artist Daniel "Chen" Bowman. These murals will be displayed at each of the PUC neighborhood centers as well as partner organizations and Elder Care Centers.
- Stenciled yard signs displaying words and phrases of MLK's messages of hope and equality. Youth will distribute these signs to the neighborhoods surround PUC centers.
An intergenerational dialogue and lunch joined youth with community elders to discuss issues surrounding poverty and racism to expand the collective understanding of past generations.
