ArtLords Murals with Negina Azimi

In 2023, we worked with Afghan muralist Negina Azimi to develop murals based on the concept of justice with students at Bellows Falls Union High School and Bellows Falls Middle School. Five of the members of the remarkable ArtLords mural organization, which formed in Kabul, have re-settled in Brattleboro, and their fabulous murals are starting to appear in Windham County, after the Taliban literally whitewashed their murals in Kabul. We also plan to bring this grant-funded project to the Putney Central School as part of our new student leadership in restorative practices training program there.
