Description

The Mural Arts Program (MAP) was established in 1984 as a component of the Anti-Graffiti Network. Today, Philadelphia has more than 2,800 murals, more than any other city. The MAP says it works "to help beautify the city; help create a sense of community; and turn graffiti-scarred walls into scenic views, portraits of community heroes, and abstract creations." The paintings can be quite striking, from the inspiring Symbols of Change, by Don Gensler, at 2110 Market St. to the psychedelic Larry Fine, by David McShane, at 3rd Street and South, to the nostalgic South Philly Musicians, by Peter Pagast, at Passyunk Avenue........
