Casita Maria Welcomes Situation Project Students Through a Virtual Exhibition

In partnership with the Casita Maria: Center for Arts & Education, Situation Project invited our 3 partner schools to embark on a guided virtual journey exploring the Casita Maria graffiti exhibition, Graffitera, which showcased 30 pieces created by Bronx-based female artists, Olga Correa and Missy “MRS” Caz. Students were virtually led through the exhibit and then given the opportunity to create their own artwork inspired by graffiti and collage techniques. Lastly, students participated in an interactive Q&A, asking questions about being a professional artist, different processes and techniques, and how to improve their own artistic skills.

By providing this interactive experience in May of 2021, our students were introduced to the arts as an avenue for expression.
