Unveiled on Sept. 18, the vibrant piece of public art celebrates the resilience, strength and hopes of single mothers and their children, anchoring a collaboration between the Jeremiah Program and the Groundswell Community Memorial Project. The 12-foot-long, 10-foot-tall mural was designed and painted by 15 young artists from Groundswell's Voices Her'd program, led by teaching artist Mimi Ditkoff and assistant teaching artist Mahogany Brown.
