Graceland Community Mural Project
In 2020, amid the chaos of the pandemic, a group of alumni from my former foster home reached out to me with a heartfelt request to create a mural for the newly renovated Graceland thrift store. Their vision was to enhance the sense of community and promote the reunions of alumni. Fast forward three years, I found myself sitting down with new CEO Keith Horton to delve into discussions about the mural's theme, design, and all the intricate project details that needed to be addressed. Once the design received the green light, we eagerly shared it with Atlanta News First, AJC, and ArtsATL to initiate the promotional efforts. As a result, interest in the project surged, and numerous individuals connected with me across social media platforms, sharing their own foster care stories and expressing appreciation for my candidness about returning to the complexities of a challenging past. Although the project encountered unexpected delays due to budget cuts, I was fortunate to receive an invitation to feature my story with Living Stories TV at the 2025 Community Champion Award and auction my mural design which won top bid for $25,000.
The mission is to engage community leaders, sponsors, foster children, and at-risk youth in Metro Atlanta to contribute to this transformative endeavor, raise awareness and provide a platform for individuals and families impacted by family trauma to transform their experiences into opportunities for healing, growth, and reconnection. While the main goal of this historically groundbreaking mural project is to successfully organize dedicated volunteers to beautify the Graceland thrift store and to develop a vibrant vendor market to celebrate 60 years of changing lives, the bigger picture is to to create a thriving, safe space where the entire community is empowered to celebrate foster children and embrace seniors who often feel ostracized, abandoned, and neglected.
The Kick off event was successful and Mural Installation has quickly gone underway ! The Temperature and weather has been a roller coaster but the love from volunteers continues to pour in in from all over!!! Click Button Below to select a day/time to paint with me!!!!
