MURALS

The mural at Fulton and Lorman streets is in memory of Mr Charlie. Charles Johnson was a dedicated community leader in Sandtown. He served as president of the Resident Action Committee and Habitat Home Owners Association. The mural was made possible by the Resident Action Committee, the Boundary Block Party, Baltimore Clayworks, Jubilee Arts, Sandtown Habitat and the Baltimore Community Foundation. The tiles on the mural were made by residents at the 2009 Boundary Block Party, an annual event to bring together Sandtown, Upton, Madison Park and Bolton Hill to strengthen and unify this area of Baltimore. The mural was designed by Emma Munger. Thank you to the Freemans for letting us use the side of their house. Special thanks to all the residents who helped plan the mural, make tiles, prime the wall, hold ladders, paint the picture, install tiles, and complete this project, including Mr Charlie.
