2010 Art and Change Grant – $2,500

Trish is producing a mosaic mural on the front facade of the Diskin-Gallagher Community Art Center in Tacony. Twenty-five area residents of all ages will create personal narrative tiles and help install the mural. From concept to implementation, the mosaic is based on a cooperative vision aimed at including as many individuals as possible. Extending beyond the goal of improving the aesthetics of an area lacking public art, the purpose of the project is to engage members of the community with one another and their environment in tangible ways. She hopes that the project will reach people who are searching for an artistic place, a common way to belong to something larger than themselves. Through this shared artistic experience, she aims to emphasize the merits of public art, civic engagement, and intergenerational friendships.
