Welcome to the CoExist in Kindness Global Mosaic Project in Steelton, PA!

“For many years it has been in my mind to transform gray and/or abandoned spaces. It can be a street, a wall, bench, park, or anything that can be tiled up. I have seen how giving color to these spaces impacts its surroundings in positive ways.”

- Nat Moraga of “ El Parque de los Azulejos ” in Puerto Vallarta.

FAQ

Can I make my own design in the area where I’m working?

No, the designs have been made in advance of the installation. We appreciate you helping to bring the designs to life! If you’d like to work on the design with us, join us for the five day workshop!

 

Can I bring others to come work with us on the mosaic while I volunteer?

Yes! The more the merrier! We do ask that pets stay home, though. We don’t want them to get hurt.
