Selected artists engage with residents via several months of workshops. Through this engagement, artists create artworks that amplify the voices of residents — their cultures, histories, talents, challenges, joys, etc. The resulting exhibitions are displayed at hundreds of feet long, on the construction fencing that surrounds the NYCHA development.
