Philly's Murals


Beautiful murals in West Philadelphia. These are called 'Holding Grandmother's Quilt' and 'Grandmother Sewing'.

I wish I took these pictures, but they are from NPR's report. Read here: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=129281658

A lovely quote from the article:
" I know that what we're doing isn't a solution for all that is wrong with the city ... [but] murals show us the catalytic role that art can play in healing a city," Golden says.
