Philadelphia Mural Project/a project started to end gang graffti

As a teacher of 37 years I saw up close and personal how art changes lives.  I also saw how it could help a community bond and make positive strides.  Through the arts we can help this world be a better place for us, our children, and children's children.  We can work with science, ecology and social media...we can reach closed minds and societies.  The Arts are a Powerful method for positive change.  Reach out change the world...Reach beyond your studio, gallery, museum to individuals whose lives you can change...to young and old, to a community you can effect, to a world that needs a positive focus.
