Mural Unveiled at MHP Wheaton Community

A mural created through a collaboration involving MHP residents — parents and students — and the Wheaton Arts Parade organization was unveiled at MHP’s Pembridge Square Apartments. The panels, depicting the past, present, and future, were created in 2019, but installation was delayed due to the pandemic. The project was funded in part by the Arts & Humanities Council of Montgomery County.

At a dedication ceremony, MHP President Robert A. Goldman noted that MHP not only provides quality affordable housing for residents, but community programs to help residents succeed.
