Tribute to Family

Tribute to Family by William Freeman is located on Broad Streed in Center City, Philadelphia near the Vine Street Expressway. This mural is a tribute to the family unit and the safety and stability that it provides. The mural was created under a tight timeframe due to the funding period from the sponsor, Cigna.
