Artists are tackling safety concerns for one of the most dangerous roads for walking in Tennessee. A community charrette, or a meeting in which all stakeholders in a project attempt to resolve conflicts and map solutions, will find vibrant ways to keep the community safe.

"Last Friday, Harry Williams signed his name on a 20-foot-tall portrait of himself in the cafeteria of Bruce Elementary School, in the building where he learned to read and write and in the room where the first grader was not allowed to eat his lunch."
What a great way to show homage to one of the first black students to be integrated into a white school in Memphis.
We've come so far but there is still so much work to do and that bittersweet notion is captured in these lovely murals that adorn a school that has seen so much transformation.
Murals in Memphis elementary school enshrine those who integrated school system in 1961 Memphis artist Jamond Bullock created murals at Bruce Elementary School, honoring the school and the three of the Memphis 13 who integrated it in 1961.

The Maslow Story
A decade ago, our leadership launched a school as a way to revitalize a neighborhood. We realized early on that as good as the school was, the school wasn’t enough. We purchased blighted land, and, in its place, not only built a school, but a whole mixed-use community that included performing arts, healthcare, and housing.
We met some friends along the way who saw our vision and were in total agreement: this work isn’t about developing a school despite the community. The school system shouldn’t have to go at it alone. Instead, we believe the built environment is the tide that lifts all boats (including the school!).
And so, Maslow was born.
