Paint on Walls

Happy Wednesday everyone! Today I wanted to share some wonderful examples of how community-based murals can not only brighten up an environment, but bring a community together. The talented artist Lorenzo Nassimbeni (who has generously assisted in past Boundless Arts programs), recently completed a beautiful mural in Cape Town with local students. Read more about it, and see why community-based public art can build a city's identity from within.




I'm currently in Accra, and was struck by a dynamic mural along Kanda Rd. that was recently painted. The beautiful images and local involvement by artists and community members alike make it a truly home-grown expression of the city. Learn more here.




Plans are in place for some new Boundless Arts community-based murals at the end of 2013, look out for them, and let us know if you want to be involved!
