Philadelphia Mural Arts Celebrates 30th Anniversary

Mural Arts ProgramWhat started as an Anti-Graffiti Network quickly evolved into an art. Eventually evolving into the Philadelphia Mural Arts Program.

Jane Golden began reaching out and redirecting many graffiti writers in 1984.  Golden encouraged many creators of vandalisms to channel their creativity to better Philadelphia.

Thanks to Jane Golden, Philadelphia is filled with amazing murals that catch tourists and citizens of Philly everyday. These murals symbolize a sense of evolution for Philadelphia and they really add character to the city.
