Join our Artwork Installation and Celebration October 26th, 2024

Friends contracted local artists to collaborate with Environmental Learning for Kids (ELK) art club elementary age students and MLK High School students, as well as participants of all ages from the First Friday nights at ELK to create captivating artwork for the 56th St Entrances Gate project.

Meet the talented individuals behind this initiative, including Michael Gadlin for the Chambers entrance and Drew Austin (lead artist) and Finn Baker for the Uvulda entrance. These artists have embraced the challenge of addressing concerns of accessibility by collaborating with local students to create entrances that truly reflect the desires and spirit of our community.
