Mural Apprenticeship

The mural team is now looking to complete phase two of  “El Abrazo” on the building next-door. We are looking for another set of apprentices that are ready to learn and create with us this summer. This is a paid opportunity for youth who are hard-working team players, quick learners, and passionate about arts. The highest consideration will be given to those who are located near the mural and have a desire to work within the community.
