Working with the Community

Working with kids and neighborhood people is the lifeblood of a community project. It provides a critical outlet for its unheard or silenced rhythms, vibes and voices.

Work in the Tenderloin

The ideas and art created by the children at the playground informed the design of this mural which is meant to show a young, confident, and beautiful girl just beginning to spread her wings. It is meant to be an inspiration and encouragement to the people that use the area. A big thank you to all of the enthusiastic participants who put their time, effort and love into this project: the children and staff at the Playground, the TL Museum staff and the Up on Top staff. This could not have happened without you.
