I would Want to make a mural on this wall because it is near a school and playground, and it could make kids happy.

This mural "Freedom School" depicts images of four Civil Rights activists that made a significant impact for African Americans. They each did several important events that made them the figures they are today. The four people are: Malcolm Shabazz, Ella Baker, Martin Luther King Jr., and Frederick Douglass. All are well know and their significant actions are taught in school and can be found with simple research. 

My Mural is about Eddie Lang. Eddie Lang is the father of the Jazz guitar. I see the colors of Green and red, There are many other people in the Mural.

The mural depicts a fallen firefighter named Joseph Konrad. It was made as a tribute to Konrad after dying in a fire not far from the mural in 1984.

Fairmount es muy hermosa. Hay mucho arboles, flores, restaurantes. Hay un CVS, Whole Foods, y gasolineras. Es muy conectado, moderno, y divertido caminar en. En Fairmount, hay un grande prisión. Es nombre es el "Eastern Penitentiary Prison," pero está cerrado.  

No pude encontrar mucha información sobre el artista. Pero sí sé que lo hizo porque quería representar a Filadelfia. El cuadro tiene muchos colores, como azul y verde y rojo. Está en un tanque de la mitad también.

En este mural, se muestran cuatro figuras afroamericanas muy importantes. Cada uno de ellos tuvo un gran impacto en el movimiento por los derechos civiles y en esta mayoría de la comunidad afroam

​Elegí Whitman Plaza para poner mi pared porque es el centro comercial más grande en el sur de Filadelfia y está cerca de mi casa. Mucha gente va allí y hay muchas entradas. Una entrada es sucia por lo que tener un mural allí hará que se vea más atractivo. Comenzó por los grupos en las reuniones que desean barrio. Los grandes eventos son las nuevas tiendas de apertura y cierre. Es muy diverso y es propiedad de "Berslin Reality".

The british used Lemon Hill as a barricade during the Revolutinary War. We have the water works and eastern state penitentiary. Stephan Girard one of the richest men of his time opened Girard College. 

Mi barrio es muchos diversos. La comunidad es creativo, artes es todo lados. Mi barrio solía ser un mercado. 

This wall is located at 1350 Vernon Rd, just about 4 or 5 blocks from my house. This specific wall is the side of the nun's house, where there used to be nuns there who taught of at the school not that long ago. They used to teach the students that attended the school, and they went to mass, which is church, with the faculty and students, I believe once a month. St. Raymond's School is indeed a catholic school, and somehow they managed to talk about religion and every class, even classes that don't have much to do with words, like math and music. They are very proud of their school, as they sell merchandise and give away plenty of things when there are events. These events are very important to St. Raymond, as it makes people join together from different neighborhoods and celebrate the occasion. 

I would put my mural on the wall of a school I used to go to in Fishtown. A few blocks away from where this building is Penn Treaty Park which is where William Penn and the Native American Lenape tribe signed a treaty of amity and friendship. Fishtown was originally a small section of Kensington but because of the high population of fishermen and fish venders, it was nicknamed Fishtown and the name just stuck. The first people who lived here where German, but in the 1900s Italian,Polish, and Irish immigrants moved in. The neighborhood has been a working class neighborhood since it was founded with many of it's residents living in poverty. Now it's undergoing gentrification with higher living costs and more art and entertainment establishments.

El lugar fue en Notre Philadelphia. Pienso un mural de Anita DeBrest debe ir aqui. Ella fue ela creadora de un COLT Coalition en el Universidad de Temple. Ella ayuda el comunidad con casas.Ella es mi bisabuela. 

Esta es una pared en sur philly. Un famoso cantante que creció aquí fue Bobby Rydell. South Philadelphia es conocida por todos los festivales que tienen casi todas las semanas. También son conocidos por los lugares de comida pequeña que tienen en cada calle y esquina.South Philly es muy diversa, pero también en pequeños grupos de su cuenta.Debido a esto sucediendo esto causa luchas entre calles.

If I were to have a mural or to create a mural or any type of art work I would want it to be somewhere in this alley, because I wouldn't want my art to be easily discovered. I didn't see this "Electric Light Mural" until I looked around and looked closely down streets that wasn't a main street. I would want my art to be something kind of sacred and would need or require some type of adventure to find. Because it would mean that whatever art that I wanted to create was found through adventure and fun. 

Este pared esta en Germantown Avenue, Mt. Airy. Mt Airy es famoso por muchas cosas. Por ejemplo, Mt Airy fue uno de los primeros barrios integrados en los Estados Unidos. Las personas famosas de Mt Airy incluyen Connie Mack (mánager de beisbol), C. Delores Tucker, y más.

La historia de South Philly empieza con los refugees de Ireland. South Philly es muy diverso ahora. Jim Croce es una famosa persona eso fue de South Philly. Una importa evento es el Cambodia New Year. El evento es muy cerca de mi casa. Algunos problemas son niños lucha con pandillas. 

I would put a mural on this high school in Mt. Airy. A lot of the values that this neighborhood has is focused on education and diversity. For example, there are numerous schools open for people of any race. In fact, there is also a Pennsylvania School for the Deaf, which is aimed at helping educate hearing-impared students. This mural would help emphasize how education is important to the lives of everybody, and putting it on a school can help convey that message even more.
