For and by young people
The educational component of MU consists of participatory arts programs that culminate in the creation of a collaborative mural, designed for students in elementary and secondary schools, special education schools, for children who have recently immigrated, community settings, and adult education programs.
Our mission? To use mural art as a tool to promote school retention by providing young people with creative spaces where they can thrive and discover new forms of expression, while supporting them in their learning and future career paths.
