Art installations and mural walls like those seen downtown and in Southside<br />

could serve as inspiration or points <strong>of</strong> pride <strong>for</strong> the <strong>Opportunity</strong> <strong>Neighborhoods</strong>.<br />

Commissioned public art made by neighborhood artists <strong>for</strong> local residents is<br />

beneficial in many ways: public art is accessible to everyone, helps establish an<br />

attachment to place, and can increase social connectedness. Art can also trans<strong>for</strong>m<br />

a neighborhood’s environment, address safety issues, and provide an outlet <strong>for</strong><br />

creativity and healing.<br />
