The Food Strong Art Celebration at Coit Farm

The Food Strong Art Celebration at Coit Farm

Presented by Food Strong at Coit Road Farmers Market

This event will be held at the Coit Road Farmers Market and Food Strong’s adjacent urban farm. It will be a celebration of the completion of original art pieces and murals created by Food Strong Learning Garden students under the guidance of local muralists. This art project, funded by CAC, will aim to illustrate the importance of fresh foods and gardening. For this project, youth will work with muralists to design and paint an original mural to be placed on our shipping container, and decorate the chain link fence in front of the Learning Garden. We will also create sculptures, stepping stones and art pieces to place among the garden beds our youth will have helped to design and plant. The Food Strong Art Celebration at Coit Farm will showcase this art by welcoming visitors into the space and having our youth offer tours of the site. This event will be held during our final, harvest-themed, Care-A-Van event of the season. This event will coincide with the unveiling of 4 new murals, also funded by CAC, at the Coit Road Farmers Market. There will be refreshments, live music, community resources, health screenings, fresh food incentives, book giveaways and much more.

All CDC protocol will be adhered to throughout the event.
