Описание: To mark the 10-year milestone, a special event will feature the opening of a gallery art exhibition and premiere screening of the short documentary ARTISTS THAT INSPIRE FUTURE GENERATIONS, directed by artist Duda Penteado and produced by Unshakeable Productions. The documentary highlights the incredible work of the 2024 JCYMAP participants and their contributions to this year’s mural project. The celebration will take place on Thursday, October 24, 2024, at JC WALLS, located at 90 Forrest Street, Jersey City, NJ.

This hands-on, intensive workshop is designed to provide young artists with the tools and skills necessary to create public art. Led by fine artist and filmmaker Duda Penteado and fine artist and muralist Catherine Hart, the program offers students aged 13 to 25 the opportunity to develop their talents through mural creation. In 2024, 25 students participated in the six-week program, receiving instruction in key public art techniques, including concept development, surface preparation, design scaling, paint application, and the preservation of outdoor art. Through this immersive experience, students not only gain valuable artistic skills but also engage in meaningful community dialogue.
