Bookshelf Mural

Bookshelf Mural is a celebration of books that were milestones concerning subjects related to: overcoming personal and social injustice; racism and oppression; restorative justice; power of positive thinking; struggles of survival; environmental conservation and preservation. Incarcerated youth from the Miami-Dade Regional Juvenile Justice Center participated in the book selections as well as the overall design, composition, and painting of the Bookshelf Mural.

Support was made possible by ArtSpring, Miami-Dade Regional Juvenile Justice Center (DJJ); The Children’s Trust; Miami-Dade County Office of Cultural Affairs YouthArts Enrichment Program (YEP); and Bank Atlantic.
