Visual artist Janel Young is a painter, muralist and community leader on a mission to inspire through creativity and play. Hailing from the Beltzhoover section of Pittsburgh, Janel has painted multiple murals throughout the city. On October 23, 2019, the artist received a proclamation from the City of Pittsburgh to recognize the day as “Janel Young Day” for her effort to wrap the city in color. And if these local accomplishments aren’t impressive enough for you, Janel created a piece that was featured at the 2020 U.S. Open. This creative genius is a true superhero and it was an honor to have a conversation with her.
