Painting the future

Fri., June 12, Salvation Army, 3030 Darbo Dr., 4-6 pm

Come see what residents of the Darbo-Worthington neighborhood envision as a happy, healthy community at the unveiling of the new smART mural.

press release:

smART is a major community-based art initiative designed to engage Madison neighborhoods in envisioning a sustainable, just, and healthy future for their own communities.

Over the last year Sustain Dane, along with neighborhood organizations, brought residents of Madison's Darbo-Worthington neighborhood together around a simple question: what does a healthy, happy neighborhood look like? Led by lead artist Sharon Kilfoy, the neighborhood design team has created a visual representation of the neighborhood's ideas from July 29th and created a large mural to be unveiled on June 12.                                                         

Community Liaisons for this important project include but are not limited to: The Salvation Army, Mentoring Positives, WOW (Women of Worthington), Sharon Kilfoy, The Worthington Park Neighborhood Association and Edgewood College Sustainability Leadership Program.

Thank you to Dane Arts, The Madison Arts Commission, and the WI Arts Board for supporting this project.
