The winners of this year’s Bloomberg Philanthropies Public Art Challenge examine gun violence, climate change, and food equity.
In the wake of the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school, the cities of Coral Springs and Parkland, Florida proposed and won their own grant for a joint partnership to expand art therapy services for those affected by gun violence. The Coral Springs Museum will build on an existing art therapy program with workshops and community talks, and help coordinate the creation and installation of a series of large installations throughout the affected communities.
