Liberty City Mural

Liberty City | 2010 | acrylic on block wall |
90’ x 40’ | Miami, Florida

The Liberty City Mural at 951 NW 62nd Street in Miami was across the street from the Belafonte Tacolcy Center.

Community members to include students who attended programs at the Belafonte Tacolcy Center took part in the mural design, compositional arrangement, wall preparation, and painting. The Liberty City Mural focused on gang violence; community relations; civic pride; social justice; and community wellness. The Liberty City Mural was one of the first community murals in the heart of Liberty City and ever since then, it has helped to spawn a mural movement throughout Liberty City.

Support of Liberty City Mural was sponsored by ArtSpring Inc.; youth from Belafonte TACOLCY Center Inc.; and youth from Empowered Youth. All three organizations serve troubled teens and incarcerated adults throughout Miami, Florida.
