Cleaner, Greener, Brighter Futures

Cleaner, Greener, Brighter Futures was a series of billboards designed by participants in the City of Philadelphia’s Career Connected Learning (C2L-PHL) program in the summer of 2024. The billboard designs follow the city’s theme of ‘Safer, Greener, Cleaner’.

Billboards representing each class were located at the following cross streets:
● Belmont Ave & Girard Ave
● Vine St & 15th St
● Lindbergh Blvd & Grays Ave
● Oregon Ave & Front St
● State Rd & Cottman Ave
● Walnut & 43rd St

The Mural Arts Philadelphia Career Connected Learning (C2L-PHL) program provides paid career exploration to Philadelphia-based students aged 14-18 in partnership with JEVS Human Services. This six-week summer intensive program introduces youth participants to hands-on work readiness experiences in what it takes to be a working artist. Through project-based learning, employing drawing, painting, photography, mixed media, and mural making, youth participants learn to develop their own creative portfolio while working with locally and nationally known artists.

Location Note: Billboards no longer on view at these location (temporary project).
