Restored Spaces

About Restored Spaces  

Mural Arts’ Restored Spaces initiative uses socially-engaged public art as a platform for neighborhood change. The award-winning model operates at the intersection of public art, design, the built environment, and green space, focusing on environmental issues and the sustainable revitalization of community spaces.

Restored Spaces creates innovative projects with diverse groups to develop and enact plans that reflect the aspirations and goals shared by all stakeholders. The projects increase long-term stewardship and utilization of public spaces, educate and include neighbors in important infrastructure improvements, and facilitate opportunities for individuals and groups to shape positive change in their communities.

David Harvey defines the “right to the city” as “a right to change ourselves by changing the city.” Read more about how this philosophy helps shape the direction of Restored Spaces.
