Casa Colina

Designers: Karla Batres, Bradly Gilvin

Public Art Gallery

ArtWorks and Price Hill Will collaborated to create a mural in the round at 821 Purcell Avenue. Inspired by the Latinx community of Price Hill, this mural project represents the vibrancy of the culture influence in the neighborhood.

Community engagement was built into all stages of the project from creative direction, artist selection, youth apprentice employment, and dedication celebration. Batres Gilvin, an artist collaborative made up of Art Academy and UC DAAP graduates Bradly Gilvin and Karla Batres Gilvin, led the project. Batres Gilvin are artists, educators, and community arts facilitators who emphasize accessibility and inclusivity.
