Artists Michael Owen and Jordan Jones to Capture Highlandtown in a Mural on the Side of Our Building!

We are excited to announce that renowned artist Michael Owen and MICA graduate Jordan Jones will be creating a mural celebrating Highlandtown on our Bank Street wall. Michael is the creator and lead artist for the Baltimore Love Project, which installs its inspirational LOVE murals throughout Baltimore. Many thanks to Healthy Neighborhoods for its generous grant and Southeast Community Development Corporation for leading this project.  Thank you to Michael and Jordan for all of their work.
