‘Take Us To The River’ is raising awareness of the waterfront through May 

Exhibit is a culmination of Artist  Rebecca Schultz’ residency at the Tacony LAB

Mural Arts Philadelphia’s Tacony LAB Community Art Center and Riverfront North Partnership unveiled the Take Us to the River at Lardner’s Point Park, a project to raise awareness about the riverfront and its environment.

Community members that contributed to the banner and participated in the nature walks

Artist Rebecca Schultz has facilitated a series of art and nature walks, encouraging participants to take observations and translate them into artwork. Schultz has created a large fabric installation from these images, which will be installed at the park on April 2, 2022. The piece will then be removed to go on display at the Tacony LAB until the end of May.
