One of Delia's summer projects

[pegkerr]

Delia has been involved in painting a neighborhood mural. From the Articulture website here [see more pictures of the mural in progress there at the link]:

In the wake of last year’s tragic fatal shooting at Seward Market [a triple homicide at a local convenience store], “Seward Stands Together” signs are still visible in windows all around the neighborhood. In 2010 Articulture secured a grant from COMPAS to facilitate a youth public art project create a mural on the side of Seward Market. Realizing a need to both memorialize the three Somali men who died and to celebrate this diverse community. Our hope is to create a celebratory photography mural to bring together those directly and indirectly affected—giving community members an opportunity to heal while honoring and celebrating the increasingly diverse community in Seward.

During the project (May 31st through July), we will be posting updates, photos, and opportunities for community support on here on our website, our Facebook page, and the Seward e-democracy forum. We also welcome thoughts and comments via e-mail at info@articulture.org.

Because of the high profile story behind ArtiCulture creating the mural, ArcStone is making a 4 minute documentary of this community project. This is a little teaser the two guys working on it, Dan and Nick, put together. I can't quite tell whether that's Delia in the orange T-shirt (glimpsed from behind the shoulder, low) But I think so; it might be. [confirmed: that's her]. At any rate, she's part of the work crew.
