Community Mural Project
Promoting Peace and Kindness
We are asking community members to join us as we create a beautiful piece of uplifting art. We would love for you to join us!
Uplifting and Beautifying Our Community through Murals
Join us as we create another beautiful mural, this time celebrating mental health and peace within our community!
This mural will be placed at the Spring Dell Center, located across from La Plata High School. We will need volunteers to assist with painting the mural. All you have to do is show up. We will provide all the materials.
The Youth Behind the Project
This project was developed by Charles County Interactors who became certified NewGen Peacebuilders and went on to present as one of five teams on the East Coast to present their project at the 2022 Youth & Peace in Action YOUnited Celebration. The team said, "Through our peace project, we hope to uplift community members, specifically youth, who are struggling with their mental health and convince them that they are capable of amazing feats... We hope to support community youth by implementing a mural series that promotes awareness and acceptance of mental health."
