Connecting people with fun & creativity through Murals for Communities brings joy to the places that we live, work and play. It's amazing to see all ages and abilities coming together through public art, especially when murals are created in forgotten spaces.

After several days of hard work, we are very proud to say that we have finished the project in San Lorenzo!
Both the community and ourselves are very satisfied with the final result. The mural has been super integrated with the environment, no doubt the area has gained a great beauty now. Here are some pictures of the final result. We are also editing a video of the whole process, as soon as it is ready we will upload it to the platform as well.
All this could not have been possible without the help of the Change X organization and the members of the community of San Lorenzo who came to participate. Thank you very much, this project is yours too!
We are now coming to the end of the project. We are very happy with how it is turning out. We hope that at the beginning of March we will finish it. We would like to thank all the people in the community who ask questions, come by to help or just stop by to look at it and give us encouragement.
We leave you some pictures of the process.
Today we start the project in San Lorenzo de el Escorial 📍.
We will be the next days making the collaborative mural with the community of San Lorenzo. If you are in the area and want to help or participate write us a message on instagram! 📩
