Look around, things are changing—these murals are part of the momentum to change our narrative, to invest in downtown Lewiston and to grow our city.
This project is about being bold. Challenging the norm. Seeking lofty goals and taking risks.
The challenges Lewiston faces are real and to succeed we have to push back against the status quo… we must do new things, with new voices – now and tomorrow.
This is not just art, this is about – challenging the norm, – changing our narrative, – acknowledging our challenges – and addressing them.
This is art, and it is so much more.
Street Art for Maine is focused on causing rapid visual changes within the community through murals to inspire people and communities to be bold and seek growth.
The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.
