Philadelphia
Mural Arts Program: has been involved in
more than 2,400 indoor and outdoor mural projects-making Philadelphia home to
the largest collection of public murals in the country. Established in 1984 as
part of a citywide anti-graffiti initiative, MAP initially worked with young,
adjudicated graffiti writers, redirecting their artistic energies into making
art that would enhance, rather than undermine their communities. Since then,
the program has grown steadily, reaching out to an ever-widening sphere of
young people and producing increasingly more accomplished works of public
art..."
