About: As with the Create mural at Mort Park & Community Center, the Community Mural was initiated during our 11th annual Paint the Town community beautification event. It was executed as a team project by Prodigy® Cultural Arts Program Ambassadors, instructors, and lead artist, Laura Perez-Insua, and incorporates many aspects of what the Prodigy® program offers.

The mural is a bright, colorful greeting to visitors when they enter through the gate of the community center, and serves as a warm welcome to all who pass by. It also signifies the importance of why building a strong, resilient community is so important: social support, a sense of belonging, collaboration among its members, cultural enrichment, social cohesion, resource sharing, activism, and mental health & well-being.
