The Artist Residency in Atlanta
After a mural was painted in the heart of Willow Park, it became a symbol of resilience for the community. What began as a project to beautify a neglected space turned into a gathering point where residents regularly come together to celebrate their shared heritage and history. The mural sparked local pride, reduced vandalism, and helped bridge generational gaps through art.
