“Inspiring Health and Art in the community”
This is the mission of Graffiti HeArt, a non-profit organization focused on promoting urban graffiti and street art in positive ways by showcasing urban artists and art through commissioned projects on various approved canvases. Urban community revitalization as well as educational programs for the youth and aspiring artists is our purpose.
Tour the Graffiti HeArt site and contact us ( info@graffitiheart.org ) if you are interested in funding a commissioned project, or if you would like to sponsor a graffiti mural project.
About Graffiti HeArt
The ability to create pathways that redirect youth away from graffiti vandalism and towards approved commissioned projects ultimately helps revitalize and sustain our urban neighborhoods while funding educational opportunities for the youth. More about Graffiti Heart.
Graffiti HeArt was founded in 2013 with the purpose to promote graffiti and street art as an appreciated art form through talented aspiring and accomplished artists, resulting in charitable contributions that fund art education scholarships and urban development projects in Northeast Ohio. Read the Founder’s story of the evolution of Graffiti HeArt.
Artists interested in participating in the Graffiti HeArt’s mission and volunteering your time and artistic talent and experience should contact Graffiti HeArt at info@graffitiheart.org . Please include examples of your work. If you would like to inquire about the possibility of commissioning a project on your property or on other forms of canvas, please contact info@graffitiheart.org and include your general geographic location in the email.
Graffiti and other forms of urban street art are cast across many canvases, including our own back yard. Look beyond the original canvas and appreciate the beauty and the intended meaning of the art that lies within. Commissioned projects provide positive examples in urban street art and help deter unwanted impermissible vandalism, while helping to beautify urban neighborhoods.
