Middle School Mural Project Brings Joy

Thanks to a generous grant from the City of Takoma Park, middle school students in MHP’s Future Leaders of the World (FLOW) summer program created a mural for the Sligo View community center. The project was guided by artist Arturo Ho in partnership with Carpe Diem Arts. We are grateful to all who supported the program and joined us for the big reveal of the mural, including Takoma Park City Councilmember Jarrett Smith, representing Ward 5. One of the young artists was asked how the mural made him feel. “It brings me joy,” he said.
