Looking to Tomorrow

Designers: Urban Blooms, April Sunami

Public Art Gallery

ArtWorks, Urban Blooms, and the Walnut Hills Redevelopment Foundation partnered to facilitate a living green wall mural in historic Walnut Hills.

A project steering committee with representatives from each partner/organization as well as prominent community members was assembled to organize this project. The plants on the green wall will grow and thrive thanks to their built-in irrigation system.

The design, created by artist April Sunami (who has family ties to Walnut Hills), is meant to represent the literal and figurative growth of the community. Youth worked with Professional Artists to execute the project which seamlessly integrates with a living green wall, designed by Urban Blooms.
