Our residents at Vital Brookdale deserved something beautiful, something that honored them and the whole neighborhood. With the mural now finished, we are so delighted to gather with our residents and celebrate. This is a special community, and we hope the mural inspires people who pass by it each day, said Melanie Hartzog, President and CEO of The New York Foundling.
I am so proud of this mural. I love its intimate, personal moments, like Patricia crocheting her beautiful blanket. We spent a lot of time talking to this community about who and what people wanted to see reflected in this wall. I hope that they look up at it every day and see themselves, said artist Layqa Nuna Yawar.
