Mission and Program Overview

Mission

The mission of the walls project is to break down societal barriers through the power of art, education, and community engagement. By fostering creativity, collaboration, and inclusivity, the walls project revitalizes underinvested communities, empowers individuals with digital and workforce skills, and strengthens local economies. Through public art, creative placemaking, workforce training, and urban agriculture initiatives, we inspire action and create equitable opportunities for all, ensuring that communities thrive together.

The walls project is a collective of artists, business leaders, and community volunteers dedicated to community reactivation by stimulating the creative economy. We create and paint murals in high-need schools and underinvested neighborhoods,cultivate and educate youth to attain creative industry jobs, and reactivate communities through collective volunteerism by remdiating blight, planting gardens and trees.
