[ShareTompkins] Fwd: Ithaca Murals MiniGrants

[Shira Evergreen]

I am excited to share this exciting opportunity from Ithaca Murals (see below). This is your chance to further beautify our community while expressing your vision of social and/or environmental justice. Your mural is also likely to be included in my feature-length documentary about Ithaca’s public art.

Please get in touch with Caleb R Thomas (contact below) if you have any questions or want to apply!

Best,
Shira
