Community Identity Program

The CITYarts Community Identity program encourages participating youth and adults to examine who they are and what their neighborhood should look like.

During the creative process, they beautify and revitalize their neighborhoods while addressing social and civic issues. Youth, families, and community members collaborate on the creation of permanent murals and mosaics in their neighborhoods led by professional artists.
