Community Paint Day a Huge Success!

There is so much to report on this project, so the images will tell most of  the story. 

Here is a pictorial essay of our community paint day attended by more than 125 people throughout the day. Highlights included painting with our ward three council member Karin Uhlich a visit from Westside Tucson Police department (TPD) Captain Richard Wilson and a scroll available for signing marking our commitment to literacy. The scroll is making it's way about the nation and will be delivered to the White House in the coming months. A very special thank you to Pro Neighborhoods, the Arizona Commission on the Arts, YES Network, One on One Mentoring, the Pima County Attorneys Office, the Lego Fund for Children, S and K Market, Ward Three and TPD. Together we are building social and cultural capital for Miracle Manor and surrounding neighborhoods.
