The Finding Home mural project is part of the Porch Light Initiative, a collaboration
between the City of Philadelphia Mural Arts Program and the City of Philadelphia
Department of Behavioral Health that illuminates important struggles and offers hope for recovery.
Artists Josh Sarantitis and Kathryn Pannepacker, with the assistance of Alvin Tull,
invite you to help create a fabric mural through the art of weaving. The completed mural
will travel to multiple installation sites around Philadelphia, reflecting the transience
of individuals who experience homelessness and encouraging open dialogue about obstacles
faced on the journey to find home.
