The Arlington Arts Mural Project: “Art Grows Here”
In 2021, ArtReach collaborated with three local artists and youth from the community on the creation of a mural to transform the outside of our Community Classroom. The exterior now reflects the inspiring programs that occur within its walls. Our hope is that young people from around the community will see the mural and know there is a place where they will be celebrated and supported, a place where they can create, connect, and heal through the transformative process of art.
