Mural Arts Celebrates Pride Month!

At Mural Arts we believe that every mural tells a story. It puts a stake in the ground and says “We are here!”  It amplifies the voices, dreams, and concerns of the people and communities we work with to create each mural. And for Pride Month we are showcasing some of the phenomenal murals and projects we’ve done in the LBGTQ+ community. 

Mural Arts Philadelphia stays steadfast in its support of LGBTQ+ rights and gender equity. We acknowledge the intersection of sexual and racial identity, and the ferocity of these individuals as well as the societal challenges they face. We understand that members of the LGBTQ+ community face adversity on a daily basis and we are happy that Mural Arts gives these talented artists the platform to express their true identities, while honoring their communities

We believe that art is essential. It brings people together and asks us to tap into our imagination and challenges us to be more empathetic.  Art helps us celebrate and acknowledge differences, and at the same time acknowledge our common humanity. We are committed to continuing our work with the LBGTQ+ community, and hope to continue making a difference in the lives of Philadelphians.
