Arts in the Neighborhood

As part of its "Arts in the Neighborhood" series, the Harambee Great Neighborhood Initiative will unveil and dedicate a mural depicting Milwaukee's historic Beerline Railway. The event will take place on Friday, October 16, 2009, from 3:30 p.m. until 5:00 p.m. at 3425 N. Holton Street at the rear of the building, along the Beerline Recreational Trail in Milwaukee's Harambee Community.

Master visual artist and muralist Reynaldo Hernandez painted the mural, assisted by three youth interns. Hernandez's most recognized work is his "Mural of Peace," the state's largest mural, which depicts an eagle and dove with a sunburst rainbow of flags, that greets motorists coming toward downtown Milwaukee from the south on the I-43 Highrise Bridge. The three youths participating in the 5-week internship under Hernandez's tutelage were: Chante Hollinshed, Messmer High School; Raven Brannon, Whitefish Bay High School; and Marcus Beebe, Waukesha South High School, all of whom live in the Harambee Great Neighborhood Initiative impact area.

"We're thrilled to be able to involve young people in beautifying the Harambee Community while they learn valuable job skills, research the history of the area, and develop their artistic abilities," says Nannette Greene Smith, Project Manager for the Harambee Great Neighborhood Initiative, the neighborhood rebuilding effort that brought together multiple partner organizations for the mural project. "In addition, we think Riverworks Development Corporation, in developing the Beerline Recreational Trail along what was once a litter-strewn tract of land, is creating a real asset for this neighborhood."

Following the unveiling and dedication, participants are invited to a Gallery Night & Day reception and exhibit titled "Women in the Arts on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive" at the King Commons Gallery and Studio located at 2775 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive. The Gallery Night event will run from 6 to 9 p.m. The Gallery will re-open the following day on October 17, 2009 from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m.
