REFLECTING BACK FORGING AHEAD

Page 2: Mural Arts Program Annual Report

We believe that public art brings life to Philadelphia and that the city’s public art belongs to all of us. We are dedicated to furthering public art by deepening relationships with our many stakeholders, fostering exciting new dialogues, and work-ing with cutting-edge contemporary artists.

REFLECTING BACK FORGING AHEAD

For more than 27 years, the City of Philadelphia Mural Arts Program has had a dramatic impact on the people and neighborhoods in Philadelphia, engaging them in the creation of murals and other public artworks that help revitalize urban neighborhoods and commercial corridors.

This report offers a reflection on recent successes and outlines our plans for forging ahead. We look forward to working with you along the way as, together, we use art as a catalyst to ignite change in the lives of all of our constituents.

About the Cover:

REFLECTING BACK The Paul Robeson mural, originally painted by Peter Pagast in 1999, is one of West Philadelphia’s most well-known and beloved murals. This past year it received a makeover courtesy of the Albert M. Greenfield African American Iconic Images Collection and artist Ernel Martinez (pictured).

Martinez worked to brighten and repair the artwork so that it will continue to honor Robeson’s unparalleled legacy of excellence in the arts, academia, athletics, and human rights.

FORGING AHEADErnel Martinez will lend his artistic talents to several Mural Arts projects this year, including:

The Roots Mural Project, which will celebrate the musical creativity and genius of Philadelphia’s hip hop heroes The Roots, especially founders Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson and Tariq “Black Thought” Trotter.

The Haiti Mural Project, a project we are creating in collaboration with 18 survivors of the 2010 earthquake in Haiti and the larger Haitian population of Germantown. Through the creative process, we will facilitate healing conversations that give voice to and build connections within the Haitian community.

The Porch Light Initiative, Mural Arts’ three-year effort to place art- and mural-making at the heart of the recovery process at three behavioral health clinics. Martinez will be working with clients at Project H.O.M.E. to create a large-scale mural.

Dear Friend of Mural Arts,

The past two years have been special for Mural Arts and for

all of us who have shared in its incredible journey. It has been

such a privilege to witness this pioneering arts organization

grow into its role as a national and international leader in the

world of community-based public art- and mural-making, and

to take a small part in guiding its work.

In 2009, Mural Arts celebrated its 25th anniversary, marking

two and a half decades of public service, and challenging

itself for the next 25. Mural Arts remains faithful to its

mission and committed to improving the lives of every

Philadelphian, while pushing its artistic boundaries in a way

that helps redefine what public art can be.

Mural Arts has long recognized the pivotal role that inclusive

public art plays in the transformation of communities from

within and has helped dramatically improve Philadelphia’s

civic and cultural landscape.

As the organization continues to grow and develop, using

innovative technologies and methods to create art that

inspires lasting change throughout Philadelphia, it remains

constant in its commitment to the city’s underserved

communities and individuals in need of second chances.

The program continues to be such a great investment of time,

energy, and resources, and regularly touches the lives of all

who encounter its work.

I am proud to serve such a dynamic organization that

accomplishes great work throughout Philadelphia.

Sincerely,

Joe Goldblum Chair, Board of Directors

Henry Ossawa Tanner: Letters of Influence Muralist Keir Johnston puts the final touches on the Henry

Ossawa Tanner: Letters of Influence mural.

Dear Friends,

Many people in our city, around the country, and throughout the

world know about Mural Arts, as Philadelphia has earned an ever-

growing reputation as the mural capital of the world. As we have built

a strong collection of community-based public art over the last 27

years we have also worked hard to broaden our artistic range,

initiating more daring and creative off-the-wall projects with a greater

sense of adventure and innovation, and the promise of more long-term

impact for the communities we serve and of which we are a part.

We have seen our work have significant impact in all of Philadelphia’s

neighborhoods. We are proud to lay claim to a wide range of projects,

a body of work that has grown and diversified exponentially over the

last several years. And we are thrilled to contribute to the creative

energy of Philadelphia, and to help put our city on the map of the

contemporary art world through extensive new temporary projects,

public installations, and cutting-edge works.

As we reflect on the last two years, we also look forward with

renewed energy and a continued commitment to giving voice to the

indomitable spirit of our city, the wealth of personality, hope, love,

and determination that courses through our work and drives our

organization to create bold, innovative, and meaningful public art

for all of us.

Best wishes,

The outcomes for each of these projects varied from stimulating economic growth along struggling commercial corridors, to inspiring a dialogue and reconciliation in communities plagued by conflict, to giving a voice to important social concerns, such as homelessness, suicide, and the criminal justice system.

Despite variances in size and goal, each project employed a common approach:

•Weincludedawiderangeofstakeholdersin the conception and creation of every piece.

•Weworkedinpartnershipwithpublic,non-profit, and for-profit entities, aligning our projects with existing strategies.

•Weengagedcutting-edgecontemporaryartists from local, national, and international pools who helped us build our social practice.

This deeply cooperative approach to creating public art generated social capital, inspired a sense of communal ownership over public space, and empowered people to continue to work for positive change in their communities.

In fall 2010, we formalized a new program area focusing on the behavioral health community by creating artistic hubs within clinics. By offering art-making classes and leading community-based art projects, we are helping those in recovery forge positive and supportive relationships with family and community members. In an effort to assess the program’s potential as a replicable model, we are currently working with the Yale School of Medicine to conduct a three-year evaluation of three of these sites, together called The Porch Light Initiative.

Over the past several years we have created between 50 and 100 murals annually in partnership with thousands of individuals and hundreds of organizations. These projects ranged in scale from small murals created in collaboration with specific neighborhoods to major civic initiatives that engaged thousands of city residents and garnered attention from a national audience.

MURALS & SPECIAL PROJECTS

Mural Arts is currently working to expand the definition of muralism to include 21st century ideas and technologies. Working both on and off the wall, we look forward to introducing our constituents to several new artists and new media over the next several years.

Over the next year, for example, internationally celebrated Dutch artist team Jeroen Koolhaas and Dre Urhahn will continue their 18-month residency with us, during which time they are living and working in a community in North Philadelphia and bringing new public artworks to three of the city’s commercial corridors.

World-famous Dutch artists Jeroen Koolhaas and Dre Urhahn take on the Philly Painting project.

Our safe and supportive classrooms facilitated fun and engaging learning experiences that were responsive to the interests and experiences of our students. Once empowered with skills as creative thinkers and makers, youth collaborated on major public art projects that helped lift them up as agents for positive change in their communities.

We offered instruction year-round, with classes meeting twice per week after-school, and daily during the summer. Instruction included a combination of lessons in art-making technique, independent and collective art-making activities, field trips to local cultural sites, and work on murals. Students attended public events and mural dedications connected to the projects they worked on, which gave them a chance to experience firsthand the impact of their work on communities, to see their accomplishments celebrated, and to practice their public speaking skills.

In recent years, we have provided free Art Education programs to more than 1,500 youth annually at sites throughout Philadelphia, offering a constructive and engaging opportunity to young people with few or no alternatives for art-making or other out-of-school activities.

REFLECTING BACK

Page 9: Mural Arts Program Annual Report

The revised program structure includes six tracks designed to accommodate students at all phases of their artistic development:

1. Foundations and Innovations, serving beginning youth ages 10 to 22.

2. A2O, an environmentally-themed track offered at recreation centers for beginning youth ages 10 to 14.

3. Restorative Justice Youth, an introductory track tailored to a severely at-risk population.

4. ARTrepreneurs, an entrepreneurship themed track for intermediate youth ages 14 to 18.

5. Emerging Muralists, serving intermediate and advanced youth ages 14 to 22.

6. Youth Apprenticeship Program, a paid, year-long internship program within one of Mural Arts Departments for Emerging Muralists graduates ages 17 to 22.

The new approach also features:

Lesson plans that are inspired by the content and themes of major mural projects, giving our teachers a chance to introduce a rich variety of subject matters and experts into our classrooms. For example, youth who are currently collaborating on a mural honoring Philadelphia poet Sonia Sanchez are writing haiku, exploring meditative art forms such as photography and minimalism, and crafting handmade books.

A Youth Development and Engagement Manager who helps participants transition between tracks and prepares them for outside opportunities such as high school and college applications, internships, scholarships, and exhibitions.

A team of highly skilled lead and assistant educators who work closely with each other and our Art Education staff to deliver innovative and effective programming. In addition to their classroom duties, they make weekly reflective blog entries about their experiences and participate in Friday education labs.

A leadership transition in fall 2010 prompted us to think about new strategies for engaging young people across the city. Following a months-long planning process, we restructured our staff and program design in order to build on our strengths while leveraging new opportunities.

FORGING AHEAD

Page 10: Mural Arts Program Annual Report

We have also enrolled over 100 individuals annually in The Guild Program, our arts-based work readiness program for adults coming out of the Philadelphia Prison System and probated young adults recruited through the city’s Youth Violence Reduction Partnership. Guild participants build practical skills through training with professional instructors, apprenticeships on community-engaged public art projects, and mentorship from our Employment Opportunities Specialist. The program is designed to combat the city’s high recidivism rates by building participants’ employability, helping them connect to their communities in positive ways, and reducing negative stigma towards former inmates.

Artwork created by participants in our Restorative Justice program was displayed publicly on two occasions, first at the Mayor’s Office as a part of Art in City Hall

during fall 2010, and then in an exhibition called Art Breaks Through, held in February 2011 at the Lincoln Financial Mural Arts Center at the Thomas Eakins House. Each exhibition received many visitors, and served as an opportunity for people to learn more about the justice system and engage in dialogue around its impact on our society and within our individual lives.

The transformational nature of art is magnified through the successes we’ve seen in our Restorative Justice Program. In recent years, we have provided art education classes to over 200 inmates annually at several area prisons. In these classes, inmates built skills and discovered their creative voices, and made a visible contribution to communities in Philadelphia by helping to create murals.

RESTORATIvE JUSTICE

We continue to incorporate the concepts of restorative justice through mural-making and community service, and place a growing emphasis on creating a successful re-entry process.

In coming years, we plan to increase awareness of the program through:

The unveiling of Family Interrupted, a new mural that explores the impact of incarceration on families. During 2011 and 2012, inmates, ex-convicts, family members, and members of the public engaged in a series of dialogues, preparing artist Eric Okdeh to create an artwork that channels diverse stories and perspectives on the issue.

Further promoting The Guild to local business owners in order to better facilitate our participants’ transitions into the work world.

Launching Restorative Justice Month in April 2012 with events that showcase inmates’ creative talents and a regional symposium featuring influential scholars and practitioners in the restorative justice community.

Family Interrupted Artist Eric Okdeh works with community members at a recent Family Interrupted paint day.

Over the past several years, we have continued to build a robust tours program that offers thousands of visitors and Philadelphia residents an inside look at the mural-making process and stories behind our greatest works of art.

Last year we introduced a new approach to this part of our work by introducing two formal mural collections:

1. Mural Mile Collection, featuring a series of iconic murals located in Center City.

2. Albert M. Greenfield African American Iconic Images Collection, featuring a selection of 47 murals that represent important African American figures and events in Philadelphia.

Both collections were developed through extensive research processes and are accompanied by a range of free interpretive materials, including: free downloadable audio tours, a virtual home on our website, and in the case of the African American Collection, educational lesson guides and an iPhone/iPad application.

MURAL ARTS IN ThE NEWSCNN.com April 27, 2011

“Take your Twitpic at Love Park (also known as John F. Kennedy Plaza, where the City of Brotherly Love’s famous Robert Indiana “Love” sculpture is located) and then hop on the SEPTA train for an overview of the city. It’s argued that Philly, in addition to being the birthplace of America, is also the birthplace of graffiti. In 1984, the city’s Mural Arts Program started, growing out of an anti-graffiti movement. Since then Mural Arts has produced more than 3,000 works of wall art around the city. Hop aboard the Love Letter Train Tour to view 50 romantic murals from the elevated train line and platforms on this subway tour.”

New York Times October 26, 2010

“The [Love Letter] project was partly inspired, he said, by one completed last year along a blighted commercial stretch of West Philadelphia by the artist Steve Powers. As part of that city’s Mural Arts Program, Mr. Powers created a series of eye-popping murals visible from the elevated train line, with the cooperation of local property owners.”

Associated Press November 7, 2011

“As a teen, Tariq “Black Thought” Trotter got busted for graffiti and was ordered by a judge to perform 150 hours of what he called “scrub time” — cleaning up such vandalism by painting murals. More than 20 years later, it seems all is forgiven in his hometown. Philadelphia is showing some brotherly love to Trotter and the Grammy-winning band he co-founded, The Roots, by creating a city-sanctioned mural in their honor.”

Philadelphia Business Journal February 25, 2011

“The Albert M. Greenfield African American Iconic Images Collection will include 47 murals throughout the city. Tours will be offered with a guide or self-guided. An audio tour, which can be downloaded to an MP3 player, will feature narration from Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson of The Roots. A website, http://iconic.muralarts.org/, provides educational background, maps, mural histories and other information.”

Flying Kite Media June 21, 2011

“A new hybrid temporary and permanent public art installation has transformed an entire city block in the Mantua section of Philadelphia. A Place to Call Home, a project of the Philadelphia Mural Arts Program, is a multimedia presentation that culminates at 3828 Melon Street. Over 200 people showed up for last week’s dedication of A Place to Call Home, which addresses the specific issue of homeless youth.”

Mashable.com August 12, 2011

“Mural Explorer digitizes Philadelphia’s anti-graffiti, pro-mural initiative, which aims to make the city one of the world’s largest outdoor art galleries. You can view murals by neighborhood and read the stories behind the artwork.”

Forbes.com June 28, 2011

“But the [Thomas Eakins] house isn’t just an historical relic. It serves as the headquarters of the City of Philadelphia Mural Arts Program. The agency was founded in 1984 by Jane Golden as an anti-graffiti initiative that provided

artistic outlets for city teens. There’s not a neighborhood in the city that hasn’t been touched by one of its more than 3,000 outdoor murals. It is the largest mural arts program in the U.S. and has earned international acclaim. In the past the organization has expanded to indoor works and themed presentations and other outdoor installations, such as a light display over a portion of the Schuylkill River.”

National Public Radio August 23, 2010

“The City of Philadelphia is known for many things — cheese steaks, the Liberty Bell, the Rocky statue — not to mention being the birthplace of America. But now, the City of Brotherly Love can boast one more sight to see — colorful murals painted by locals are transforming Philadelphia’s neighborhoods into outdoor art museums. The murals are collaborations between the City of Philadelphia Mural Arts Program and local citizens — who get involved to beautify their communities, connect with neighbors and fight graffiti and crime.”
