Art has the power to heal and it makes an impact beyond just creating it. 88% of young people say that creative expression helps them destress or feel less anxious. Studies also show that public art can combat social isolation in neighborhoods, support economic development, improve safety, and most importantly build pride in your community.

Art has the power to make people feel represented, and feel like they belong!

Inspired by the work of Groundswell NYC, as featured in the Roadtrip Nation docuseries: "The New Volunteers" – get out of the house and bring art, music, and joy to your community!

Pledge to share your art in public places, from art, music, or fashion, to help uplift and revitalize a space in your community.

Sharing your creativity is good for you, good for your community and good for the world.

You’ll earn verified volunteer credits and inspire others with your efforts.
