Hub City Heights Gateway Mural is complete!

Written By Joannah-Josephine McLarty

We are excited to announce that the Hub City Heights Gateway mural installation is complete! With the help of Nia Simone and Anthony Lee Pittman we were able to bring beauty to Hub City Heights, a permanent housing complex for the formerly unhoused. The Ribbon Cutting ceremony was held on April 1st 2026. There were refreshments, ribbon cutting, a tour of the site, and tacos!
