Preparing for a mural to go up on the 177th Street Bridge |
On June 18, 2015, BCS Community Service was invited to
participate in the first stages of a graffiti removal/mural project by priming the East 177th Street
Bridge, between the Bronx River Parkway off-ramp and Park Avenue in the Bronx. We were prepping for Saturday June 20th, at which time an organization called
Publicolor would come and do what they do best, creating cultural designs. This one of many projects put together nicely by Emily
Colasacco, the Director of
Urban Art/Summer Streets at the
NYC Department ofTransportation. Some of the pictures reflect the enthusiastic of BCS staff and
clients. All supplies were provided by The Department of Transportation.
BCS is looking forward to keep doing this type of work with
Emily Colasacco and her team.
Enjoy the Pictures!
