Lift as You Climb

Educational
Murals, like billboards, foster conversations with passersby. Inspired by the phrase "Lift as you climb," this mural symbolizes community upliftment and support, visually represented through ladders and figures.
The piece, collaboratively created by the community, embodies its message by involving many in its creation. The Kranzberg Arts Foundation, artists, and designers all contributed, making the mural a true representation of lifting others up.
This artwork not only amplifies the idea of mutual support but also stands out with its vibrant scale and colors, inviting everyone to reflect on the power of community.
