What began as an experiment in 1984 to redirect the energies of graffiti writers is now, 3,000 murals later, the largest mural program in the counrty. Jane Golden, the founder and leader of Philadelphia's Mural Arts Program, will lead a slideshow "tour" through Philadelphia's streets. Included will be a selection of the hundred plus murals that have a nature theme and are often accompanied by restored lot gardens and parks.
