For almost a week, we’ve been bringing this wall to life through art, with 20 students actively taking part in this creative journey.
Asma, one of the participants, shared that before this, she only used to draw in her books with pencils and had never painted with brushes and colors on a wall.
“This is my first time painting on a wall, and it feels so special. Working with so many colors, learning from amazing artists, and creating something meaningful with my classmates has been such a joyful experience. It’s something unique beyond our regular classroom activities, and this memory will stay with me whenever I see art or colors in the future.”
This experience is not just about painting a mural—it’s about learning, creativity, and creating unforgettable memories together.

Final mural of “Unity in the Community” now lives on the front of the Clay Ave Public housing Community center in the South Bronx at the corner of 168th and Clay Ave. This mural is a story where the older generation represented through a grandmother who had passed away from the local community, inspiring her grandson through images of the dreams of the children and families from the community as well as the symbols of the sustainable development goals, and the importance of the environment for future generations.
This artwork was a concept by the local community and a beautiful testament to the power of narratives created by communities coming together through storytelling. This is the first half of the two wall mural , and stay tuned for the second half of the story!
