The Mural Arts Prgram (MAP) is one of the top public-arts programs in the country and has produced over 3,000 murals in Philadelphia. This particular project involves multiple works, in any media, to be executed in my own neighborhood — South Philly. Following is MAP’s call for artists. If you have any questions you can ask me or contact MAP directly: Lindsey Rosenberg at (215)685-0729 or Lindsey.Rosenberg@muralarts.org
This is true community activism. Good luck! Love, Elizabeth Fiend
