This is a voluntary action in collaboration with the Action Aid center in Thessaloniki, the Mural Arts Institute of Philadelphia, and the U.S. Embassy in Greece on the theme: ‘Covid, youth, and mental health.’

Over the past year and a half, we have discussed in-person and through teleconferences how the crisis we are experiencing affects us and, specifically, its impact on young people. We exchanged views with artists from Philadelphia, who presented their respective projects, and then sat down with the children of our city to record and gather our thoughts.

Together, we created this collaborative and interactive mural as an action towards seeking communication, leaving a gift behind in our city.
