Changing the Urban Canvas

Green Star Movement inspires students and community members through the creation of public art. Our vision is to create public art throughout the world that connects youth and builds community.

Since our founding in 2005, Green Star artists have successfully transformed the interior and/or exterior of over 60 public spaces including schools, community centers, and parks using a technique called
bricolage. Bricolage is an intricate combination of mosaic, sculpture, painting, and photos used to tell a story. The subject matter for each project is inspired by the historical background of the neighborhood where the mural will be installed and by the youth artists themselves.

Green Star participants develop positive communication skills and improve their capacity for productive collaboration, learn to express themselves through art, and have in increased sense of pride for their school and neighborhood community.
