Volunteers Needed – Help Paint Community Mural at Gotham Greens
Dates: Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, August 23–25
Time: 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM daily
Location: Gotham Greens Parking Lot, Providence, RI
Join the Woonasquatucket River Watershed Council (WRWC) and local artist Tate Won Chen to put the final touches on a new community mural in Providence! The mural transforms a distressed, graffiti-covered wall into a vibrant celebration of nature, featuring Goldenrod and Rudbeckia to highlight the 2,500 pollinator plants recently installed between Atwells Avenue and De Soto Street.
Volunteers will help by applying a second coat of paint to different color sections. No painting experience is needed — all supplies will be provided, and volunteers can participate for as long as they’d like. Most tasks are at ground level, but experienced painters comfortable with heights may assist with higher sections.
What to Bring: Comfortable clothes you don’t mind painting in, water, and lots of creative energy!
