This year youth participants at Groundswell have been working on a mural project that is meant to capture the nuance and interconnectedness of Crown Heights communities. After presenting their ideas at various discussion panels and hearing from community members, the youth artists have finalized their design (pictured above). The mural has been titled “One Crown Heights” and will be installed this summer. Until then, Groundswell and partners on this project, including the Crown Heights Community Mediation Center, will be hosting community painting days.

You are invited to a Community Painting Day on March 17 from 2:30pm-5:00pm at the Brooklyn Children’s Museum!
