Inclusive Public Art Project: Viva La Vida Mural | My Home, NC

A striking mural in Washington, NC celebrates the strength and heritage of the Latino community. Bold colors and cultural motifs tell a story of family, migration and unity, bridging generations and honoring Latino contributions to the city. Created with participation from over 500 area school children, the mural is a vibrant symbol of pride and hope for a diverse, united future.

The Z. Smith Reynolds Foundation funds inclusive public art projects that share stories of NC’s diverse people, cultures, and experiences, especially those whose stories are often untold or under-told.
