Groundswell's Response To The New York Daily News Article Last week, the New York Daily News ran a story about a Groundswell mural that was removed without our knowledge by a school partner last month.
Groundswell brings together artists, youth, and community organizations to use art as a tool for social change.

Community

Youth

Groundswell is a safe space for me as a teenager, it’s a place where you can express yourself with whatever it may be, it's your getaway. More about Kevin's story

Artists

For me, building imagination and sharing knowledge alongside a younger generation of artists is a great manifestation of the fruits of this shift. With this mural, we are also bringing intergenerational participation into a future that honors our past while actively creating a different path of existence.
