In these sessions we madepoems and created art about our collective experiences and worked togetherto conceive of a MULTI-WALL POEM-MURAL stretching down the corridors13th blocks. The four uplifting murals feature stories,songs, and dreams oflocal residents reflecting on the past and imagining a future Kensington! Comecelebrate. Walk a procession where you’ll see all four murals and hear directlyfrom community members and artists who worked on the project!
