Theron Cook Art x RIZE Program Solidarity Mural at Barbey's Park

Solidarity Mural

Art is more than creativity! it's transformation. We see firsthand how art has the power to shift perspectives, inspire action, and rebuild lives. It serves as a safe space for expression, a catalyst for healing, and a bridge across community divides.

For many youth in our community, art is a path toward resilience, providing an outlet to channel pain into purpose and passion into peace.

Through our programs, we're changing community norms by making space for youth voices, empowering them to envision and create the change they want to see.

Art is the heartbeat of our mission driving empathy, unity, and hope.

Together, let's continue to shape a world where art saves, heals, and transforms.

Thank you to our resident artist@theroncook for bringing the communities vision to life. Thank you to the @cityreadingpa for approving the design and believing in the mission. Most importantly to the youth, families and elders who helped create and paint the mural.
