Declaration of Immigration Mural::: Call for young artist 16-21yrs old!



















Declaration of Immigration
A Typographic Mural

The Declaration of Immigration mural class will partner young people with a teaching artist Salvador Jiménez to conceptualize and create a 2 story high x 30ft wide mural on the Southwest exterior wall of the Yollocalli Arts Reach/Radio Arte shared building.

The mural will be a visual dedication to all immigrants and allies who have marched hundreds of thousands of miles to advocate for fair legislation for immigrants and who have stood strong in the face of anti-immigrant rhetoric. Declaration of Immigration will look at some of the historic and current issues affecting immigrant communities and serve as a reminder that the United States of America was founded on emigration and settlement.
