Join us and our partners at Art Sanctuary for a community meeting to discuss a new mural on the Art Sanctuary building! Come hear about the plans for honoring the history of the building and the organization, with a mural and a historical marker. Meet Ernel Martinez, the artist selected for the project, and enjoy light refreshments.

Art Sanctuary uses the power of black art to transform individuals, create and build community and foster cultural understanding. They are housed in the Dickerson Building, which has been used since the 1920s as a hub for political, social, and civic meetings.
