Community Painting Day: Transform/Restore Brownsville

CANCELLED DUE TO WEATHER. Community members are welcome at any time to join the team over the next few weeks to paint portraits. We welcome your contribution. 
 
In partnership with Groundswell, we invite you to join us for a community painting day for our new Transform/Restore: Brownsville mural. Join the team of youth artists at the mural, and contribute to the transformation of the space. Make sure to bring work clothes, water, and a creative spirit!
 
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-year 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.
