Beauty is simple. It’s when we complicate our minds and hearts with ugliness that we forget what’s around us.

If you could change the world, just by sharing yourself in your truest form...would you tell us your secrets?

When you look into the eyes of a stranger, do you see unfamiliarity? Or do you see yourself staring in return?

Art shows us that even destruction is creation. It gives us an opportunity to see beyond the parameters of our block, our street, our neighborhood--

“When a city is divided by difference of opinion, paint a picture.” -TOCG

A smile can stretch for miles. One person’s act of kindness can ripple across a community like a pebble in a pond. Be confident in your ability to impact others.

Our Ancestors built meaning into the stones of the very buildings we drive by everyday. Why not highlight the beauty of history instead of wallowing in its sorrow?

When you think of the future of the inner city, what do you see? The remnants of raisins in the sun? The promise of a tomorrow?
