South Brooklyn celebrates the Coney Island neighborhood of Brooklyn. Groundswell artist Bayunga Kialeuka worked with youth and administrators from the South Brooklyn Youth Consortium, a community center in Coney Island, to create a mural focused on family, community, and education. The mural depicts local residents in a tutoring scene in one of the centers classrooms and an outdoor scene on the famed Coney Island boardwalk. The mural highlights well-known landmarks of Coney Island while also celebrating the day-to-day activities of this vibrant community.
