The Village of

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
2024

Brightening up the Fairhill-Hartranft neighborhood, two new community-informed murals by Philadelphia artist Kyle Confehr now adorn Mastery Charter School Clymer Elementary and Veterans Playground. These vibrant artworks, featuring an interactive “I Spy” game, aim to spark curious and caring conversations among residents.

Part of the Literacy-Rich Neighborhoods Initiative funded by the William Penn Foundation, the Fairhill-Hartranft ABCs promote literacy in creative ways, from street art to storytelling. This project, a collaboration with local organizations, seeks to build community power and preserve the stories of Fairhill-Hartranft.
