A community canvas that brought neighbors together to color the city
Downtown Manchester buildings are a lot more vibrant than they used to be. The colorful canvases were part of the first-ever mural festival “Community Canvas” in The Queen City. The public art event produced by Arts Build Community brought together community members and artists to tell their stories, through work we all get to enjoy now.
NH's First ever Mural Festival by Arts Build Community
The #CommunityCanvas an initiative of @artsbuildcommunity an organization committed to raising community pride founded by the Manchester NH Artist James Chase. This citywide project is just the start of a series of conversations about Art, Home, Place and community.
