Groundswell artist Christopher Cardinale worked with youth from environmental justice leader UPROSE to develop designs for a series of wrap-around vinyl banners. These banners would be adhered to four hybrid shuttle buses previously purchased through UPROSE's Pollution Reduction Projects for use by and throughout the Sunset Park community. The bus designs feature images related to the communitys concerns about air pollution. The image concepts were developed with the youth and in conjunction with UPROSE's clean air partners, including the Al-Noor School, the Chinese-American Planning Council, and the Marien Heim Senior Center.
