In today's episode, Mural Art's Chief Operating Officer, Magda Martinez, hosts artists Meg Saligman and Cesar Viveros Herrera to tell the story of what is arguably Philadelphia's most popular mural, "Common Threads". From its unexpected origin to its uncertain future, we get a behind the scenes look at the making of Philly public art history! 

Join episode host Greg Corbin, Director of Mural Arts Philadelphia’s Restorative Justice Program, and artist Mary Enoch Elizabeth Baxter for a conversation about a current Mural Arts project, "Emerge". Making use of traditional and modern ideas of public space, the project is distributing PSAs created by local artists that are a direct response to COVID-19 and the Black Lives Matter movement. #WeWillEmerge
