Come and celebrate the completion of this inspirational Summer Leadership Institute 2015 mural. This dedication honors the culmination of all the research, work, thoughtfulness, and activism of this team of young artist activists. Hear their stories, and amplify their voices!
 
Groundswell’s NEA grant award-winning initiative “Transform/Restore: Brownsville,” presented in collaboration with the New York City Department of Probation and the Pitkin Avenue BID, will come to a triumphant end this summer with its fifth and final mural celebrating Brownsville’s hidden treasures. This two-year participatory mural project engaged young adult probation clients, local businesses, and community members in the creation of visible and permanent change within their own community.
 
This project is made possible through the generous support of the National Endowment for the Arts, through its national Our Town initiative and the Pitkin Avenue BID. Additional support is provided by Con Edison.
